- _fool 9y agoNetlify employee here - this is even funnier when it happens from the inside. There's a moment after working here for a fairly short time when you start typing "net..." into your browser and the autocomplete has turned from netflix into netlify. Somewhat of a rite of passage ;)
- overcast 9y agoYeh, not a fan of the name, and not just for the obvious reason. I'm honestly not even sure how to say it properly. There's too many syllables for such a short name.
- bobfunk 9y agoThink "simplify" but with "net" :)
- ValentineC 9y agoAh, I never thought about it that way until now. In any case, I'm a huge fan of Netlify. Thanks for the service!
- chrshawkes 9y agoThanks for the mental reference... it's still a terrible name though.
- a_t48 9y agoYeah, especially when the HN page looks like this - http://i.imgur.com/hpnAiim.png http://i.imgur.com/hpnAiim.png
