Hello! I am new here, and likely so are you.

It's great to see local communities online - and a great time to shape how we'd like to go on.

I'd love to hear people's thoughts on a display name change from Wellington to The Whanaganui-a-Tara.

This would not change the URL, or stop people finding us by searching Wellington.

Tell us what you think... Go!

Yo! I'm from the other island (the better one if I'm honest).

I was wondering if changing the display name of each local Lemmy is palatable to the people from there.

This would not change the URL, and would still be searchable with it's anglophone alias.

So... what are your thoughts on a new display name to Te Wai Pounamu or Te Waipounamu before you get too used to the current one?

Or as I said, I'm an imposter so perhaps mu suggestion is not the best or even the second best one.

Edit: I have no skin in the game so if y'all reach a consensus, or want to progress this further reach out to a friendly admin

Throw out your preferred app, preferably with a link.

Asking for this here because many reddit refugees from the great third party app purge may not look out of the federation or find apps as easy to find as before.

Expecting there to be a load on f-droid, izzy etc?
