Taking suggestions on a name for an ActivityPub-based fitness tracking app like Strava, but for any kind of exercising since it will use https://fitlanguage.org to compose programs and track sessions.

I like non-fedi/AP names like Mastadon and Loops, but as you know naming things are hard.

#FitnessTracker #ActivityPub #FitLang

@blainsmith chose fitiverse since it's a bit more general. Not sure what a good name would be though. Any particular features it's going to have? Or a type of exercise it's focused on primarily?

@pseudoramble Selfishly, I made this to track weight training, but FitLang is general enough to define any exercise, interval, duration, and load/effort so it could be for biking, running, etc. I always hated tracking this stuff in spreadsheets.

First version will have the ability to create a program and then you can track sessions based on that program, but you can also just ad hoc track any sessions of exercising or training.

@blainsmith

Other. Avoid another "fedi" this-and-that at all cost, I would suggest.

Witness the overload and abundance on the #ActivityPub fedi lists I curate at https://delightful.coding.social and where the fedi experience list has a #fitness related projects

Some first brainwaved names..

FitFriends
FitnessPub
FitFinder

SportsRoads
SportSocials
SportingSocial

@blainsmith

SportingSocial: "Social Web Supports Sports"

Neat taglines to be brainstormed..

@smallcircles Thanks!

The "fedi" just comes off as too techie and will really want to avoid it so I agree with you!

This is a good list that got the brain churning!

@blainsmith DoApp, simple, to the point and inviting

@blainsmith @smallcircles

I was going to answer something like, well, “Activity…” is RIGHT HERE …

More accurate to the architecture you’re proposing AND the domain the app serves, and less already-saturated than fedi-something.

@kaylee @blainsmith this is actually slang in Dutch for ”fight”, it may have come from Surinam, so it might not be the best option

@blainsmith Champ, if you wanna emphasise competitiveness.

@andi Ohhh that definitely occurred to me too.

@johannab @smallcircles I just checked and activity.fit is available!

@blainsmith Heartbeat(s)

@johannab @smallcircles Ant now it's not longer available because I own it. Seemed too good not to at least snag before someone else did even if I don't end up using it.

@blainsmith Frava - the Fediverse-Strava

@blainsmith fedusport

@blainsmith@fosstodon.org I'm liking activityfit as well

Is that too many syllables?

tivi.fit?
