New name! Propose and vote in your favourite! Date of decision is Dec 30, 2017

It has dawned on us that IPFS Station is not the best name for this project. IPFS Station doesn't communicate what this repo is about and it also doesn't get better when we announce an update on twitter, IRC or Reddit about the latest IPFS Station.

With this in mind and similar to what we did to find a name for IPFS Compation, we open this issue to welcome name proposals and encourage everyone to vote on what they like the most. We will use the proposals and that feedback to pick the new name.

Please submit your proposals by creating a separate comment per proposal and give votes with 👍 👎 on that comment.

Keep IPFS Station

IPFS App

Voted 👎 on IPFS App because it feels a tad too generic. IPFSdroid is also an IPFS app, and in a slightly different context, any app built with IPFS is an IPFS app.

IPFS Desktop

IPFS Commander

I also want to provide another perspective cf. @lgierth that many Mac apps are Something.app (e.g., Calculator.app, Calendar.app) but outside of built-in Apple apps, I rarely see it used (e.g., one doesn't say, "VLC.app" . IPFS Desktop is good and expresses the desktop interface...even though Station is a task-/menu-bar based interface.
