Recommendation: Add "auto" to the title of the project

Open davidhedlund opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

It's not possible to figure out that History Cleaner automatically performs its actions. The extension Cookie AutoDelete indicates automation.

I guarantee that you get more users if you extend the title of your project by adding "auto", because no other extension automatically clears the history as far as I know.

I personally think the name of the extension does a good job describing what it does. However, I'm not really opposed to changing the name.

I will continue to leave this issue open in case anyone else has feedback on the name (and I've also added the help wanted label to make it clear feedback is welcome)

Suggestions:

  • History AutoDelete (based on Cookie AutoDelete)
  • AutoHistory (simple and direct)
  • History Zap (catchy and emphasizes action)
  • Hush History (privacy-focused)

Of those, I think History Zap sounds the best.

I wouldn't use History AutoDelete, as that's already the name of an extension by the same developer as CAD. Wouldn't want to give the false impression that HC and HAD are the same.

I forgot to include "Auto". How about History AutoZap, or History AutoZapper?

Sorry, you're absolutely right about that.
