alt Hacker NewsWhat is this 'railway'?
I am assuming that a domain like railway.com should be about trains.
Why does every tech company have to name themselves as a one word .com website and what they do is unrelated and vague to their own name?
Does every tech company think they are Apple and have to register every word in the dictionary and redefine it as a technology company?
Really bad name for a company.

Netflix?
Possible empirical justification: Non-tech and more "typical" orgs (train companies...) don't spend lots of money on slick-sounding one-word .com domains.
could be worse
could be called "entire" (https://entire.io/)
A lot of companies have been doing that for a long time
Lotus
Jaguar
Caterpillar
Shell
its a human thing
You don't think "railway" at least conjures ideas about the company? It's not some random word. Not every company needs to be "helps you ship software quickly inc"
