${App} for Lemmy

Am I the only one who's irritated by all the apps called ${App} for Lemmy? I don't even know why, but I hate this specific series of words. Why don't you just call your app Jerboa or Boost or Voyager?

I assume it's to boost visibility. I'm sure lots of folks type 'lemmy' into the app store search.

Some of the apps, have moved from reddit, to lemmy, so no one is confused why it doesnt work.

Because the application has the UI/UX focused on those platforms. You can use Husky for Lemmy or Pixelfed if you want, but the UI is made for Pleroma and Mastodon instances.
