This is good growth for such a smaller lesser known fedi project that replaces Facebook.

    Nah, it’s a good name, has a nice ring to it and if two syllables. Friendica is hard to pronounce and sounds awkward.

      Same as Instagram or Telegram. Really, stop nitpicking the name of FOSS projects excessively. I get that they’re not the best, but they’re not really a dealbreaker for most of the people outside the marketing departments.

      Otoh, what if we would all call it Friendi as well (just like we did with Insta? Or Fren?

      “Instagram” is, at least in my opinion, about as awkward as “Friendica” to say, and has millions of users. It wins marginally on spelling, but how often does the average user write or type the full name of a site anyway?
