I beg Foss devs to work on their branding. Forgejo? How’s that even pronounced?

This is an especially tragic case. IMO, Gitea has one of the best names in software.

They have a pronunciation guide in their FAQ on the website. There is no branding that would be obvious/intuitive to everyone

There is def stuff that could be better though.

There is no better. Maybe they pick a name that's more intuitive for you, but it'd be less intuitive for someone else.

Do you believe that there can be no such thing as good or bad branding?
