Rich Harris ❌I really hope this thing catches on and becomes mainstream, mostly because I want to watch stony-faced news anchors talking about the president's toots
(Axel Rauschmayer—OLD)@rich_harris The naming needs to get better: “boost” is not a very descriptive word. I like “retweet” much better.
@rauschma given the elephant theme I propose 'trumpet'. 'Axel trumpeted your toot'
Olivier Forget@rauschma @rich_harris trumpet makes sense, and sounds much better. 👍
@teleclimber @rauschma ok I'm making this an official proposal — @Gargron can we change 'boosting' to 'trumpeting' please? 🎺😆 (I'm joking. But only a bit)
@teleclimber @rauschma @Gargron I'd feel guilty about that given the amount of noise there must be on that repo right now, but maybe!
@rich_harris @rauschma @gargron Yeah it's a bit intense in there right now.
I read a comment on HN that "trumpet" was considered "too long" by the community. I don't see it, but there it is.
