Well there is 5% of American ppl. And 95% of the rest of the world. GIMP has been a highly international and famous software for decades and the vast majority of the human beings were not aware that GIMP had a negative meaning in the US.
If ever it appears in 6 month that "Glimpse" means "Dirty ol' prostitute" in finnish slang or whatever, do you think that there is going to be another fork with a new name in order to show support for old prostitutes and for the finnish culture ?
- lynndotpy 7y agoI'm not sure. I work mainly within that 5% and that is where the name GIMP was a barrier for me. If Glimpse was around at the time, it would have been a good alternative. For what it's worth, the Glimpse FAQ claims to have checked the meaning of "Glimpse" in every known language.
