“Instagram” is, at least in my opinion, about as awkward as “Friendica” to say, and has millions of users. It wins marginally on spelling, but how often does the average user write or type the full name of a site anyway?
I believe Facebook’s name came from an actual thing. The company was created for college students. Many campuses, would give face books that had students and professors from the universities.
The only reason Facebook doesn’t sound dumb is that we’ve been saying it for like 15 years
Nah, it’s a good name, has a nice ring to it and if two syllables. Friendica is hard to pronounce and sounds awkward.
I thin some nerd just wanted everyone that uses it to say “dick.”
