It just werks.

It’s basically a rite of passage for a new lemmy user to get banned from half of .ml for a completely mundane comment they made.

The less snarky version is saying you’re one of today’s lucky 10,000. Though, your musical illiteracy does not impact what I said about branding and SEO.

Until I read this post I had never heard of this “famous” AC/DC.

That’s what your post reads like to me.

Naming something after a famous person means you’re starting off on the back foot in terms of SEO and brand clarity.

Digg worked well because it came out of an era where adding a second G was enough to sound techy, but it also played into the dig/bury aspect of voting. Reddit works because the name is “read it” while also being a unique string you couldn’t mistake for anything else. Both have a lot going for them that Lemmy just doesn’t.

Lemmy as a name is very poor branding. It’s almost as bad as Mastodon.

If I’m dealing with text, it’s a directory. If I’m clicking around, it’s a folder.
