I see you 'helped build' Digital Ocean, so I can understand your personal reasoning, but really - it's not at all important to anyone else.
Also, wasn't that a bit of a fad back in the late 90s early 00s? I know my wee business followed the path of concatenating words for brand ...something... , but I honestly couldn't care less how other people deploy it in their own space, as long as they remember the name.
- neom 5y agoOf course, some people might choose to reply "Oh I see you worked on DigitalOcean! Funny people care about something like that, but given another human does, I'll respect that!" Some might chose to reply "I can do whatever I want, I don't really care what you think" - people can choose how they react. It's always very interesting to me who choses what, it's very telling regarding personality. I am well aware people are welcome to do as they please, nevertheless, the name of the company is "DigitalOcean" not "Digital Ocean".
- detritus 5y agoReading my response back now, I didn't mean to sound cynical or abrasive when I quoted 'helped build' from your profile. I could have as easily said "I see you were involved in.." or whatever and that would not have sounded snarky. Honestly though, I didn't think it through that much, I just literally quoted what I saw. Just in case you thought that was where I was coming from! </reddit>
