I hear you and I agree I'd rather not be triggering that. I tried asking a few people and trying to come up with a different name and people didn't understand it as easily. Horcruxes give you an idea of what it's doing basically just from the name (you could even imagine a cryptographer inventing this system just from hearing the name it is so obvious).
Do you have an idea for another name for it that will communicate the idea as well? Maybe you can activate your queer tech blogging friends so that we can come up with a new name? (and then I can resubmit under the new name, since Notion will change and kill this link once I change the name).
What else can be split up into pieces and you have to get all of them?
- lostgame 6y agoIf this is a conversation you're willing to have (and kudos for that, and I'm glad you're previously aware of the issue), it's something I'd love to help discuss - I'm a software dev as well, so I understand how the concept of the functionality is well suited for the metaphor - however, I'm positive another solution could be found. :) And, again, it'll of course be great PR and could draw some positive attention to the service. I've made a throwaway email - psyche at theoic dot me - as obviously the nature of HN makes it difficult to communicate here. I'd love to just offer a little bit of help, brainstorm for a bit, and I think it's fantastic that you're aware of the issue and wanting to take the steps forward. Knowing is half the battle. ;) I appreciate the response, regardless of anything - I know it might seem like an extreme response without context, but Potter truly has been an extremely hot button issue lately.
