Good that they're changing from Minetest, but this new name hardly rolls off the tongue. Maybe I'll get used to it.

I'm so confused when people say that. It's a short name without any difficult consonant clusters. What in it doesn't roll off the tongue?

I think anything with an ambiguous pronunciation, where someone has to stop and think "wait... is it pronounced this way or this way?" isn't the best name.
