The GNU folks: Hehehe, we called it GIMP. And the main branch is called master. Because GIMP, get it?! We couldn’t possibly change it because *fart noises*

Also GNU folks: Why does everyone think we’re three misogynistic 12-year-old boys in a neckbeard suit?

There are so many low hanging fruits for you folks to embrace inclusivity and make a dedicated effort to clean up your act but you seem too bloody busy pissing all over the tree to mark your territory.

@aral [not a native English speaker here] wait, there is another meaning to GIMP? Other than the image editor?

Is it like the mastodon "toot" being slang for fart, or something worse?

With a quick search i only found stuff related to the image editor

@4censord GIMP is acronym for GNU Image Manipulation Program

You are assuming that it was made intentionally. As not English mother tongue for me it sounds just an acronym, this is an issue, if it is an issue, that belongs to group of people and it is not general. :flan_shrug:
