I second this one. The same functionality (swipe to hide) is also on Voyager. Once you're used to it, you'll really miss it if it's not there.

Another example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Matchmaker_(Honthorst) goes to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Matchmaker

Also, while TARDIS is an acronym for “Time And Relative Dimension In Space”, DARTIS stands for “Dimension And Relative Time In Space”, which obviously makes perfect sense.

I suggest DARTIS. Let me explain.

If it wasn’t trademarked by the BBC I would definitely opt for TARDIS, the hybrid of time machine and spacecraft. I am no lawyer, so I cannot tell if this is a possibility after all.

However, it ticks so many boxes:

• Reference to space → Fediverse
• Reference to timeline(s) → Mastodont
• Bigger on the inside → Lemmy
• Tribute to a crazy fun SF series
• Cool icon

I personally have a weakness for a reference to pop culture (e.g., like the programming language Python is a tribute to the British comedy group Monty Python).

To be safe, we might use an anagram instead: DARTIS. As a bonus we will have a nice story behind the name.
