I know what cracked software is. Surely the creators did not mean the name as a double-entendre right? They surely wouldn’t like to know that it alienates a portion of the user base… Open source software is not inclusive… right?
You’re the only one outraged and on a crusade. Pipe down. ;)
Reddit isnt dead, and what “killed” it was API changes and a greedy CEO. Astounding that you think “Hey this name could be offensive in a large english speaking market” is a crusade when it is in fact a discussion about the actual content lol.

Are you trolling? If you think of a white person, why would an American, with an entirely different set of experiences and culture not think of something else? How is acknowledging an atrocity by our own government against poor blacks a bad thing? Is the goal of this project to have people use it? If so, they should reconsider the name.
Personally I don’t see anything wrong with being considerate. There’s no “what if” here. The name blows. Even ignoring the racial history in the US, who the fuck wants to be heard talking about their crack pipe? It’s a comical name at BEST. Who is typing that into Google? lol. Idk surely they can think of something better. Gamepipe was a good suggestion even as boring as it is. It’s not just cracked games anyway, it’s DRM free too etc.
