      Judge me. Here are some names I can think of:

      • Connect (or some dumb spelling like connekt because it’s trendy)
      • SocCenter (social center)
      • Open Doors (or some variant)

      I’m out of ideas.

        Connect is pretty generic and used in a million other places. There is no spelling variation unused.

        SocCenter is worse then Friendica to my ears.

        Open Doors sounds like a suicide prevention group.

        Maybe it needs an acronym of some sort instead…

          I may be weird, but I like Friendica.

          Friend + Ica

          Friends, friendly

          Like erotica, but friendly.

            “Erotica with Friends” may pigeonhole it a bit. It’ll become every other “friend” making app full of dick pics.

            Let’s just call it Make Important Life Friends and leave it as an acronym.

        How about Boat4Sale? I mean realistically in 5 years or less that’s what most socials devolve into anyway…

        That one might be wrapped up in copyright. There was an app called Socialite a few years ago.

          Same reaction. I was like, “Hold on… Friendica sounds like a Tata Vehicle with integrated AI features” 😂

      At least it used to be spelled with a k instead of c, so it looked like the name of an old Eastern bloc brand of tractor or something.

      In a lot of balkan languages this is similar to how you would say girl friend (we spell it frendica) so it’s kind of interesting
