What does the word "Materialistic" have to do with Hacker News? I did a web search to see if I'm missing something, but it looks like it's just a name that does not fit.
How about "Hacker News client by Trung", or "Trung HN" for short.
- zdean 10y agoIt's a nod to the Material design framework that was used for the project.

- dublinben 10y agoYou might consider updating the name to something like "Materialistic for Hacker News" so it's more clear and easy to find.
