Voyager

I quite like Voyager continuing Apollo’s space program theme.

Another option in tribute to Apollo is “Delphi”.

Delphi is the site of the Temple of Apollo and was an ancient sacred precinct and the seat of Pythia, the major oracle who was consulted about important decisions throughout the ancient classical world. The ancient Greeks considered the centre of the world to be in Delphi.

As well as the links to Apollo, Delphi’s history is of a community sanctuary and a central source of wisdom.

The term Delphi is more unique than Voyager so it will be more searchable and should be easier to secure a domain name.

Here are a few interesting quotes from the Delphi Temple of Apollo wiki:

The Temple of Apollo, was a major part of the Panhellenic religious sanctuary located in Central Greece at Delphi. The temple and sanctuary at large were dedicated to one of the major Greek deities, Apollo.

Within the ancient Greek world, Delphi was considered the center of the universe, marked by the omphalos, or “navel”, of the Earth that was located in Apollo’s sacred temple. The Temple of Apollo at Delphi was perceived as an incredibly sacred site, considered a major center of ancient Greek religious practice and belief as well as a place intimately connected to the gods.

The exterior of the temple was also decorated with metopes, with five major depictions of gods and heroes being victorious over monsters, a mirroring of Apollo’s defeat of Python during the mythological founding of the Temple of Apollo at Delphi.

The priestesses of Apollo, known as the Pythia, served as the oracle for the Temple of Apollo at Delphi. Greeks and non-Greeks alike would go to the Temple of Apollo at Delphi from across the Mediterranean and beyond to consult the Pythia on a variety of different topics, ranging from the state level like the establishment of new colonies to the personal level like marriage, children, and health.

Voyager works, literally anything other than wefwef

What about Phoebus, the Roman name for Apollo?

Wefwef is just fine.

I mean Lemmy is named after Lemmywinks, the gerbil that went up Mr. Slave’s ass in South Park, so Wefwef is a great choice in comparison.

Changing now would not be a good idea. There’s a bunch of Apollo users looking for a new home (I’m in this group) and we’re all hearing about how great wefwef is.

Changing the name risks confusing people and missing new users.

Voyager is great!

I also like the idea of “shuttle” because that’s the program that came after Apollo in NASA.

Gonna comment in case the upvotes don’t count, I’m really a fan of Voyager. Not a big deal if it were to stay Wefwef, but Voyager has more appeal to my ear. Either way, great app regardless of name.

Voyager is ok, but I do like Lunar. Lunar for Lemmy has such a good ring to it.

Voyager and Lyre are both nice suggestions, but I don’t like either even close to as much as I like wefwef. As an aside, the vote bottons being the opposite colors is hilarious.

Lyre. Lyre for Lemmy. Apollo played a lyre and it’s a cool sounding word.

I vote wefwef to stay!

I’m not sure if this has been asked but I’m very curious about the origin of the name ‘wefwef’.

I like Voyager! Much better than Wefwef.

I could also see LEM for Lunar Excursion Module, the technical name of the lunar lander during the Apollo missions (a nice nod to Apollo app). Also has the benefit of being similar to Lemmy.

Voyager!
