@confusedbytheBasics @Emu short and distinctive names tend to be coveted. I guess because easier to discovery / remember / protect via copyright? Idk but there must be a reason basically ALL products that become dominant are 2 or 3 syllables names that are not (usually) normal words. Definitely a trend but NOT a rule

In which case kBin and Lemmy are fine names. Yeah?

@confusedbytheBasics In my opinion yes. Kbin more so than Lemmy and Mastodon.
