How do you say it?

[jez]

The homepage lists the IPA

https://djot.net/

/dʒɑt/

/dʒ/ is like both the `j` and `dg` in english judge

/a/ is like the a in father in most American english dialects

/dʒɑt/ is also the complete IPA for the word "jot" (as in "to jot down") in American English

So then why is it called "Djot" instead of "Jot?"

[macintux]

I would wager the answer is simply findability, although reducing the likelihood of trademark collisions is a nice benefit too.

[euroderf]

maybe "žot" ? or "ʤot" ?

[dcre]

Jot.
