Flohmarkt - a Fediverse replacement for Facebook Marketplace

I read it as being pronounced something like "flow-marked"

yeah, it's quite close

Cool. If u can host it as a tor hidden service that is a large an influential market that might benefit from such a thing. Haven't looked but it might need some additional features to work as a decent platform in that sense.

It reads like regurgitating dehydrated phlegm

This is what i need so i can finally delete facebook but unfortunately this is too early and small with nothing piblically uk based and no one looking at it so things would never sell.

Why would English be objectively better than German?
-
At least most speakers of European languages will pronounce it close enough to German - though most will not do make the r in markt as hard as Germans do.

What localities does this operate in so far?

That name...

Initial impressions of the name are not great.

The name has already made this nonviable for the average person

Because more people speak it?

Yeah but if you had to search for it you'd have a trouble spelling it. Flowmarked would be how English speakers would hear that I think.
It probably needs an English brand name for outside the germano-sphere - fedimarket?

We have to stop sending end users to software solutions for web admins. We don't send them yo "nginx" or "apache", after all.
Someone throw up a website using this software and give the site a sensible name, and then direct users to that website.

And why should we name things for the exclusive convenience of monolingual English speakers to the detriment of everyone else?

Please stop being an obnoxious ass. English is the de-facto lingua franca of the world, acting like German is in any way comparable is just disingenuous.

This is about localization, not about renaming the thing
