I was just thinking about the main criticism we get when we promote Lemmy, which is "why are there so many different URLs, names, platforms? What is Voyager, Photon, Piefed, Lemmy? Feddit.uk, lemmy.ca?"
So, in the same logic as just saying "go to https://phtn.app/ to have a look at the content and see if you like it. If you want an app, the links are on https://vger.app/settings/install", I think it could be interesting to have a global name for everything. We could even try with Photon, to be honest.
"Go to https://phtn.app/ to have a look at the content and see if you like it. If you want an app, the links are on https://phtn.app/mobile (which would redirect to the 2 Voyager links). Example of confusion some users experience: https://old.reddit.com/r/RejoinEU/comments/1ipff9z/ok_so_what_next_what_can_you_do_to_help_the_cause/me0jdxp/?context=3
