A community for the mobile app Connect for Lemmy.
I would bet it has to do with the trend of things being named "X for Y" because all the Reddit clients had to be renamed when Reddit changed their tos so that any third party app name couldn't start with Reddit. Hence Relay for Reddit, Sync for Reddit, etc...
Edit: Apparently this is a Play Store policy not Reddit. So, it makes even more sense.
Well luckily we are not bound zo Reddit tos anymore ๐ค
It's a Play Store policy, not a Reddit one. Twitter clients that mentioned Twitter in the title has to be renamed X for Twitter too.
That I didn't know. It makes even more sense now. Thanks.
So why was "reddit is fun" called so until the end then?
It was actually called 
.
hmm interesting, I guess there must be some reason. Was just wondering is anyone could link why it has to be done this way and if it was actually due to Reddit tos as a brand or general play store guidelines
On the play store I think it was called 'RIF Reddit is Fun'
Well so you can just use the acronym of the app itself in the beginning of the play store name and it's all good? I'd like to see some source for these ominous play store policy
I have no idea. Something about branding and fine print.
Maybe it was related to "impersonating other existing program"? Or is was just a brand guideline to the Reddit brand, anyway here are the guidlines related to app naming and some examples. https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/9898842#zippy=%2Cexamples-of-common-violations
I like it the way it is now.
It's a case of Old habits dying hard, I like it, we all know why it's connect for lemmy.
Nah it's good
