Relativty – An open-source VR headset

I agree that "relativity" isn't a great name: it's a mouthful at 5 syllables, and I don't see a logical connection between the name and the product.

But I don't understand why the name would be infuriating. Can you explain?

The name is "Relativty" without the last 'i'

That's the issue. It's an awkward 4 syllables.

The fact that you thought it was "relativity" is exactly what makes it infuriating, I think.

Not the OP but I thought it was miss-spelled at first.
