Why did Calckey need to change their name at all? I mean we just saw Twitter change its name for literally no reason and I can already predict how that’s going to go.

Calckey sounds like some sort of spreadsheet software, not social media. It does not sound fun and lively, and is a poor name for a social networking software, imho.

It’s one of those project names that only makes sense if you know that the creator goes by the name ‘thatonecalculator’, ‘calc’ for short and it’s their fork of ‘misskey’ - boom, it’s calckey.

But for anyone else and general adoption it really doesn’t suit it. I think I’d have to come up with new names for some of my personal projects too if I ever released them since the naming scheme is similar… like ‘dowathbin’ ‘dowathstodon’
