Renaming Jerboa to Lemmy - eviltoast

If Jerboa is the official mobile app for Lemmy, why not simply call it Lemmy, or Lemmy Mobile, or Lemmy for Android? It seems more practical to make use of the official platform name, branding and trademark.

Edit: Thanks everyone for the correction, I was under the impression that Jerboa was the official app because it’s made by one of the two core Lemmy devs.

    Thanks, I assumed it was official due to being made by dessalines. If it’s just one of many side projects then I understand the separation.

      It just says

      Jerboa is made by Lemmy’s developers […]

      But I get what you wanted to say. I think some versions earlier ths was even more prominent. Like they really advertised it as the app by the official lemmy devs.
