Like Libreddit, the name of the project includes the trademarked "Medium" so the project is in risk of trademark infringement. Pls rename the project

LibLogos or ReLogos
references the latin term of logos, a concept of rethoric. Would emphasize the quality of this frontend

I don't have a preference. I invite people to vote on names with a " 👍 ", if they like it. In the event of a tie, I'll flip a coin and declare the winner :p

Voting will be open till December 1, 2023.


edit: Tooted about it

Remediu
is the romanian word for "remedy". i was searching for latin-sounding words and maybe this one, "healing" the user experience on Medium might help.
very close to the original, with the typical re- you might find in other opensource alternatives.

Postcriptum
as a variation of Scriptum, a popular word, with post- reminding it is a recreation of the original, (literaly mean after)

Scriptum ? keeps the recognizable -um and uses a recognizable word related to litterature.

"Remediu" wins the poll! Thanks for participating everyone, I'll rename the codebase over the weekend.
