Thanks for subscribing and bearing with the awkwardness of renaming over the next week or so :)

    What made you switch the name? I always felt wefwef pretty cool and less risky to run into copyright/trademark problems than with your new name.

    However: Fantastic app, I will stay!

      Went to wefwef.app, started using it on iOS and added it to my homescreen. Turns out, the name was voyager instead of wefwef. You can imagine I was very confused about it before doing some digging.

        There is a point because its much easier to get people to start using an app they can get from app stores. Also lots of apps are built as web apps regardless

        Honestly, the name was a big reason I downloaded it, along with how active the developers have been. I keep forgetting the names of the other apps. Wefwef stood out, along with the cute mouse.

        It seems like the users are happy with the name change, and I’m excited for the devs to be working on their finished concept.

    I love the new app name, thanks for helping me not need to type WefWef except for this one last time. You absolutely rock!

    You guys also fixed the long post bugs today. Totally impressed.

      I’m glad you appreciate that bug fix! It took all day to fix.

      Web apps controlling on-screen keyboards cross platform is really difficult, unfortunately!

    And I still can’t log into my lemmy.world account through this. Still not a big deal since I’m waiting for sync, but I don’t get it. The same credentials work everywhere else.

    By the way is the name referring to a certain star trek movie?

      I don’t have any issue on iOS/Safari for lemmy.world, what’s your OS and browser?

      The name is a reference to the NASA missons (Apollo > Voyager), which is also referenced in Star Trek so it’s related in a sense.

        I tried on android with mull browser and chrome and windows with firefox and chrome. They all say my password is incorrect, but going directly to lemmy.world works fine.

        And yeah I’m aware of the apollo/voyager connection, but the character specifically refers to itself as “VGER” like vger.app. That’s why I thought of star trek.
