As I'm getting tired of linking same post over and over about app's name and since it seems as a major concern for some people, I've decided to hold a vote for future name of this app.

Have variants, think that current or my proposed name is fine, or anything else -> comment here. Let your voice be heard.

Current variant I'm thinking about:

Silverfox - no similar names on froid, some similar names on play store, that are not really popular anyways.

Don't forget to use Obtanium to get latest releases automatically. :)

Silverfox is nice. I'm cool as long as the logo remains the same.

I really like Fennec a lot, but are there concerns about other apps with the same name? Ultimately it's just a name, the app will still be the same app, but I do like how Fennec is a bit easier to say than Silverfox. Although, it's not like I'm talking about lemmy apps to people in person anyway 😅

Also, like the other commenter, I REALLY like the current logo so I definitely don't want that to go away, regardless of the app name.

EDIT: just saw the post about the Firefox fork. I guess you could go the route of "Fennec for Lemmy" if you kept Fennec? 🤷‍♂️

Ofc we can keep the "for Lemmy" part, but I think it won't help with confusion. I'm using it as a community name but it's not really working and it's not the first complaint about that haha

I like Silverfox. To give you some options, here's what I thought of: Articfox

How about "Fennecus". Silverfox is also good.
