    “Best Guitar Pics” is dull and completely unimaginative. It’s the “Microsoft Approach of Naming Products ™”; which does not allow itself to take any risks and ends up being soulless, corporate, empty. Or to use a more contemporary reference: it’s the type of slop that ChatGPT would produce if someone asked “suggest a name for a community for people to share pictures of guitars”.

      “Best Guitar Pics”

      merely an example. Be sure to let BestOfLemmy etc know…

      “dull and completely unimaginative”

      and your solution is to tack “Porn” on the end? oh dear

        You are choosing to ignore the rationale for the name:

        • visually stimulating pictures
        • lacking deeper meaning
        • poor substitute or connection with the actual object/activity

        “Best”, “Awesome”, “Aww” and any other suggestions that I’ve heard do not convey these ideas. And to me these ideas must be expressed. If you can come up with anything that can succinctly make these points across without resorting to porn/fetish analogies, then I will gladly consider them. But if you just want me to change it because it offends your sensibilities, then I am sorry but I will simply ignore you.
