Not as much as Loops probably.

Searching for any information regarding Loops is great way to show off the importance of SEO

I don't think it has that big of an impact. But most open source developers forget that it might end up being used by more people than just them .

Mastodon. Lemmy, do a web search especially for Lemmy on reddit and you are more likely than not to end up on threads about the singer . and don't get me started on the many unpronounceable names of open source projects.

I don't really think the name of the software matters. My server is called The Vegan Theory Club, and that is what I ultimately want people to look for and know. The fact that we are running the lemmy software is a bit incidental imo, it is a good website platform and I think if you are looking for software it is an obvious choice and in that context people aren't going to confuse it with Motörhead

I think it's more the network effect. There aren't many users here. Like, I know the handles of all the usual posters on the Canada community.

Based on what I've learnt, what's holding Lemmy back is that a large amount of users are fucking man babies that brigade any women-oriented communities and drive women in general away from this place, while admins just sit back and allow them to. The Lemmy mouse needs a fedora.

Perhaps. First name that came to me was remmy but the real nane is remy from the movie
