The guy who runs TheOatmeal might not be terribly impressed though ;)

The app name or the food?

Yes

Names starting with a capital k feel like they are native KDE apps to me.

I vote Artemis

or other: mooncaKe

Now that I think about it, Apollo - Artemis is pretty obvious. Would Apollo - Starbuck work or would it be too copyright troubley?

[–] Spaceman2901@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

Ooh, kinda liking “Starbuck” as in Apollo’s wingmate.

[–] miraih@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Oh I absolutely love the BSG reference with choosing the name Starbuck, but if branding with the coffee is an issue, I think Artemis or even KBucks would work tbh

I would approve.

[–] Xathonn@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Artemis with like a logo of like a bow and arrow could be cool. Or a quiver since it would hold multiple arrows each arrow being an instance or something.

[–] Madison_rogue@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

Artemis is a great choice!

[–] WaffleFriends@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

I also really like Artemis. A tribute to where we came from

[–] Granite@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

My first thought too was Athena. Farewell Apollo.

[–] GxC@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Artemis. Great name and doesn’t imply a fixture to any one fed platform.

Luna is the most inviting name

[–] Shwelly9@kbin.social 14 points 1 year ago

Appy McAppFace

[–] djidane535@kbin.social 14 points 1 year ago

I personally like both Kmoon and Kbean.

[–] hariette@kbin.social 12 points 1 year ago

Dev here! I’ll be taking a look at all the suggestions here for those that can’t vote on the toot itself :)

I think Luna is the nicest name

[–] tchambers@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I voted for "Artemis" but YMMV...

I don't think you can get better than Artemis and Apollo being twins representing day and night. Night has come for reddit.

Any way to interact with mastodon from Kbin?

[–] ivy@fedi196.gay 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

yep! kbin fully supports microblog content and all kbin posts appear as they should on mastodon

iOS only 🙄, how about Chi-Chi.

[–] Kabaka@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Good news: it is not iOS only. I'm not sure why the poster put that in the title. It is going to be cross-platform. The beta sign-ups are evenly split between platforms. @hariette has posted about this a few times.

Kilimanjaro, so there's a strong K and L sound. Maybe shorten it to KiLe, or something, but still pronounced like the first syllable.

Aurora would be awesome

El pollo. Means "the chicken" in Spanish and also evokes "Apollo".
