You know, firefox was a decent name all in all.. but can we stop naming browsers NounNoun?

LibreWolf
LadyBird
WaterFox
IronFox
IceRaven
IceCat
FireDragon
IceWeasel
SeaMonkey
SwiftFox

I get it, it's based on firefox^*^.

(^*^I didn't check that every one of those is based on firefox or even a browser, I just did a quick search of firefox alternatives to pad my list since i didn't have them memorized)

Out of those you listed, LibreWolf and SwiftFox are not NounNoun: they are AdjectiveNoun.

I always thought libre came from book. Does it mean freedom?

[-] TheOakTree@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 weeks ago

Yes, libre in French and Spanish mean free, but specifically as in freedom/independence and not cost (gratuite/gratis).

I'm sensing a trend here.....

How about we start going with verb adjective?

  • Jump Big
  • Shout More
  • Deny Cute
