i guess that is a problem of many open source projects, in particular when they define a standard so that there are different apps with a variety of names. e.g. the server implementation of mumble used to be called murmur, or the “mainstream” client of matrix is element.
And I guess that’s the opposite problem that for-profit products have, so desperate to maximize every marketing dollar that every fucking thing has the same name in it even if it’s a fundamentally different product.
Microsoft Outlook is the poster child of this in the software space.

I got away from Microsoft two years ago, so my references are out of date.
Just like microsoft’s software paradigms!
