Official App Name Change #118

Open purevertigo opened 5 years ago

purevertigo commented 5 years ago

Google has changed the name of the app/website to just 'Messages' now.

Will this project reflect the change?

thanks in advance

chrisknepper commented 5 years ago

@purevertigo Thanks for bringing this up. Probably yes at some point. Interestingly this was a bit of a quieter change, as the URL of the service is still messages.android.com so I'm not sure if Google is going to change that URL at some point.

What do people think? messages-desktop or google-messages-desktop as a repo name?

I think leaving the name of the repo as is might be the best option. I think it better describes what it is, sounds less generic in my opinion. However, changing the name of the app as it appears in Windows, Linux, or macOS might not hurt.

Looks like google just changed the url! I think google-messages-desktop would be good alternative, but tbh, i don't think it really matters all that much?
