As some people are confused about the name:

> According to Canfield, he initially intended to use Cock.li only as his own personal email address. “It wasn’t until November [2013] that I posted the address on 4chan, and someone responded and said ‘I would love an email address there,’” Canfield said.

> Other emails offered through Cock.li include horsefucker.org and goat.si—as well as other more vulgar domains we’ll refrain from printing here[...]

One of the most well known domain of them is nuke.africa although I don't know if email registration is still possible under that domain.

Cock.li is the edge lord of fringe email providers and was down for quite some time for reasons I did not care to get into.

What a bad name for a webmail client

That's a blunt way of saying it, but I agree with the sentiment.

Which is a shame, because this is a project that could have had potential, but a poor name goes a long way towards discouraging it being taken seriously.

Have we learned nothing from GIMP? No, no we have not.

Well you're saying that from not just an Anglo centric pov but a US pov. 'Cockly' doesn't sound particularly bad to my British ears.

But then I live not so far from Penistone, so maybe I'm just used to these kind of naming schemes.

For so much noise about cocks, there is a distinct lack thereof. What a scam!

What’s with the name? Is this somehow porn-adjacent?

Couldn’t it be rooster-adjacent?
