@gillesphilippemori It's related in this way, that new stream names could be arranged in a way, that fits the different resolutions. Say, when more streams are embedded in the header navigation, it can be done clever :)

To me, 'Home' for a website sounds very old-fashioned, like 1990s.

'Main stream' has other connotations in English, so I wouldn't be in favour of that.

As @jellelangbroek pointed out, there is only one stream; the other views are filtered from that one stream. E.g. 'My activity' displays only the posts in your stream on which you have made a contribution; 'My aspects' displays only the posts in your stream made by people in your aspects; and so on.

I don't see any confusion from calling the stream 'Stream'. It seems to me to be trying to fix a problem which doesn't exist.

I'm happy for people to propose alternative ideas, to see if anything better comes up, but unless there's some amazing idea, I vote for retaining 'Stream' for the, er, stream.

ps: I don't care what other social networks do.

@maliktunga just to clarify; have you actually heard the complaint from other people being confused by 'Stream'?
I ask this because as @goob points out, let's not create problems that aren't there ;)
as for me as podmin, I haven't heard the complaint before.

@jellelangbroek Actual "complaints" no, but people to which I showed diaspora* did find that counter-intuitive. In fact, my position is reversed : why make it different from the standard? There is no problem in naming the main page "Home"... ;-)

@Goob 1990s, really? That's not really an argument in my opinion. Desktops are called desktops since the 70s and that doesn't make it a bad name. It may be "old-fashioned", but there is a reason why it's still used. Oldie but goodie :)
