I keep hearing "web OS" a lot lately. Have people forgotten what "OS" means? "Website" or "webapp" if you must.

  That’s a totally fair point — and yes, Yamato isn’t a traditional OS by any stretch. It doesn’t manage hardware or processes. That said, “OS” here is a bit poetic — it’s more like a gentle digital environment, or a mindful space for everyday tasks. Maybe it’s closer to a “life OS” in spirit — an interface for journaling, chatting, and reflecting, where forgetting is intentional and calmness is designed-in. Happy to hear any naming thoughts though — it’s still evolving!

    "gentle digital environment" sounds better than "OS", and is more accurate

      Thank you — I really like that phrasing too. “Gentle digital environment” definitely captures the feel more precisely. I used “OS” a bit poetically, thinking of it as a space that supports small, mindful digital routines — journaling, reflecting, and letting go. Still evolving, so I’m grateful for the nudge toward clearer language.
