You really think that's what this is about?
Look. I teach in a university and the best part of my job is onboarding people to free and open source software; really trying to open more people up to getting involved and helping and using it etc.
I am all but certain that the childish insistence on such a borderline ridiculous name is the primary reason it's never been seen as a serious competitor to Photoshop despite being so technically.
They need to grow up.
- stonogo 4y agoThrowing internet temper tantrums about other people's software and demanding someone else needs to grow up is pretty rich. You're wasting a perfectly good teachable moment whereby students can learn that not everyone is beholden to Victorian standards of grimdark prudish joylessness. I have also taught in several universities; not once has anyone even questioned the name GIMP, because I never made a big deal about it, and so there was no big deal. Your behavior shapes theirs; lean into that.
