It’s pretty funny that anyone would complain about a Linux distribution being named after a developer’s given name. I mean, it’s Linux.

    Irony being they (Ian and Deborah) split up, Ian quit Debian and worked for Sun (arguably a competitor back then), Docker, ..., and unfortunately committed suicide. The good news? Debian's still going strong.

      This sounds like a Halt and Catch Fire spinoff.

    I feel like this is a fact that's much less well known :) (Debian is actually a portmanteau of Deb(ra) + Ian...)
