Comment on Self-hostable bookmark app Hoarder has been rebranded to Karakeep after a long trademark dispute

  Is this even true or just a myth? From what I know, law doesn’t actually mandate people to be jerkasses. Also at least in sane countries, you can’t trademark words that are in the dictionary like “hoard” or “hoarder”, since by definition they have prior art.

      The company trying to enforce the trademark is not called hoarder nor do they have any apps called hoarder.
