Case sensitivity in magazine names

This is ridiculous and is going to put off people migrating.

/m/parenting and /m/Parenting should equate to the same magazine

@Sexypink
Not sure about you but having two different things called the same thing is pretty confusing. kbin is a social media platform for everyone and shouldn't have confusing "gotchas" like this.

And before anyone says it, yes, I know Linux and Unix (except MacOS and Android) are case-sensitive.

There's also a difference between Calorie and calorie. The "Big-C" Calorie is a "kilocalorie" which is 1000 "little-c" calories which is 4.184 joules. I have no idea where I'm going with this but enjoy the shitty science lesson 🤣
