But the name sucks.
You're welcome to use the software, apply patches which relabel it to
front-end users and start attracting sheeple to your GNU herd or
whatever ;)
The freedom of free software, isn't it awesome?
Honestly, I doubt developers hesitate to patch things because of the
project's name. I agree end users might care what their service is
called. But then again, we have _many_ users who don't use "GNU social"
but use "Quitter" instead (still fully interoperable).
Of the many "Quitter" themed sites, the https://quitter.se/ logo isn't
even a GNU (as with the qvitter GNU social plugin they're developing[1])
but two chillin' out maxin' birds instead.
But thanks for the enthusiastic suggestion. :)
