    Yeah but if you had to search for it you’d have a trouble spelling it. Flowmarked would be how English speakers would hear that I think.

    It probably needs an English brand name for outside the germano-sphere - fedimarket?

      And why should we name things for the exclusive convenience of monolingual English speakers to the detriment of everyone else?

        I don’t disagree conceptually, but English has been a lingua franca for a long time now.

          That’s not an issue for brands. German and Chinese brands are just doing fine everywhere with the possible exception of the two countries in the world where people are not exposed to other languages.
