Why use so many buzzwords #17

Open varunarora opened 7 years ago

varunarora commented 7 years ago

Just call: "inklings" -> "problem" "ideas" -> "ideas" or "solutions" "things" -> "projects" "unicorn" -> "[like symbol]" "wings" -> "inputs" or "contribution"

Narwhals is a weird unclear concept. I still don't get it.

Unicornopia is also somewhat turning off. Just use something simple, right?

All these buzzwords and new taxonomy are cute but they create a massive barrier to entry and too much cognitive load. Model how people think.

Now wth is a blessing

"the club" -> "members". Perhaps we can not reinvent the wheel for literally everything?

now what's a "chasing"

+1 I'd abstain on removing the unicorn symbol. It gives the webtool it's uniqueness. All the rest can be replaced.
