Has bad branding ever turned you off from software, FOSS or not? (lemmy.world)

I'll start: while looking at app theming I came across WallRizz, renamed from WallWiz. I haven't tried it, and looking at it documentation it seems well made, but I cringe at the name and the AI-generated penguin logo. It shares the art style of all the other AI slop, its basically italian brainrot but 2D. WallWiz sounds way better, rizz sounds like it was specially designed for gen alpha (little kids). If there are apps of even similar quality, why would I use this one?

As more of an art and design person than a technical one, yeah almost undoubtedly, though I can't think of specific examples

But I really appreciate the work that goes into a beautiful logo, typography, or UI, and that will often sway me, probably more than it should

Void's beautiful logo/logotype is what originally got me interested in it as a distro, and the only reason I'm not using it now is cause I'm a dummy and minimal distros require I use my brain a lot more than I've thus far been willing to get my computer up and going
