Idk abt GIMP but hard agree about Gnome. Whenever someone uses a human foot as a logo = certified sex freak.
Or how about 3 naked people in a circle holding hands. And somehow this guy is like one of the least problematic white South African billionaires.
Well, the bar is subterranean
sometimes a footprint represents humanity and isnβt about fucking itβ¦.
iβm so happy i didnβt get that foot fetish hardwired inβ¦ it seems so silly to meβ¦
sometimes a footprint represents humanity
sometimes, but in GNOME's case i think it is not intended to be a human foot but rather the foot of a mythological creature (a gnome). note that it has a squashed aspect ratio compared to a human foot, and also has only four toes.
apparently it's also problematic in some cultures: https://wiki.gnome.org/Engagement/FootAndCulturalIssue
thatβs a good point about some cultures seeing a foot the way i would see using a linux distribution with Goatse as a logoβ¦.

My pro open-source teacher in HS pushed for all of us to use the handful of Linux computers and recommended GIMP over Photoshop. He even said we can download GIMP at home for free.
Back then, searching for GIMP gave you bondage suits.
And because we were immature fuckwads, we played real hard into that joke, to a point where the principal had to send a letter to parents about how to actually find free open-source software with links.
Obviously Tarantino was involved. A little foot fetish never hurt nobody-- right? Right???????
It's a gnome foot though.
shortstack foot fetish with a little bit of dom sprinkled in

Gimp
Is
Mangy
Photoshop
I've come to think of it as a (really) good thing - no financially motivated tech megacorp is gonna sell a monthly "sub to Gimp".
(Tho a clothes rental company might.)
YouTube apparently censors "GIMP"
What "Gimp" could stand for?
A type of bondage suit
GNU(not linux) Image Manipulation Program.
Its all rolled into GIMP, kinda like someone zipped up a suit. Oops.
It's also a slur for disabled people.

Virgin Media would like a word
I knew they were British, so I always assumed it had something to do with the whole Virgin Queen thing(it was and is a nickname for Elizabeth the first) or something like that, but it was apparently because they considered themselves virgins in business when they started their first record store.
I remember someone pointed out that GIMP probably would never get adopted in a company or professional environment just because of the name. Imagine suggesting that someone should use "GIMP" in a work meeting, lol. It's not necessarily a problem, but it's a funny limitation that they put on the software.
See, most people have no clue that "gimp" is a sex thing. They just see it as a funny-sounding acronym. In an actual work meeting, the people who do know wouldn't say anything about it to avoid being seen as the weird ones.
Coq cowardly renamed their project because of this.
IMHO Coq is a much worse name, because everyone knows what a cock is.

I use GIMP at work. It's officially approved in a very tightly restrained environment, literally in a repository of software people can install from. At an enterprise with thousands of employees.
I'm pretty sure only people who know what it is install it, never heard anyone so much as mention it.
