My great idea for Fraidycat is:
I am writing to share some feedback and a suggestion regarding the Fraidycat app, which I have found to be an immensely useful tool in managing my social media use and maintaining focus.
Context:
Fraidycat has been instrumental in helping me avoid distractions, reduce doomscrolling, and manage the time I spend on social media. Its functionality and the philosophy behind it align perfectly with my needs, especially in this age of information overload.
Suggestion:
While I appreciate the utility and design of Fraidycat, the name of the app has been a point of personal contention. The term "Fraidycat" suggests a sense of fear or cowardice, which contrasts with the empowerment and control I feel when using the app. This dichotomy sometimes leads to feelings of shame rather than pride in utilizing such a resourceful tool.
In light of this, I propose the consideration of an alternative name or the option of a secondary branding for the app. This change could better reflect the empowering nature of the app for users like myself who use it not out of fear, but as a means to assert control over their digital consumption.
A more neutral or positive name could enhance the user experience by aligning the app's identity with its empowering functionality. This could also broaden its appeal to potential users who might be deterred by the current name.
Conclusion:
I understand that a name change or offering an alternative branding is a significant decision that involves many considerations. I offer this suggestion with the utmost respect, and completely understand why this could be problematic, as the name of something can sometimes be incredibly important and personal to the creator. However, I believe this change could positively impact the app's perception and its users' experiences.
Thank you for considering my suggestion. I am looking forward to any thoughts you might have on this matter and am happy to discuss this further if needed.
