  honestly kinda disappointed they switched to calendar versioning, it makes identifying big releases much harder

  GNU IMP (i refuse to say the short name) 3.0.0 was such an event, it’s sad knowing libreoffice can’t really have that

    Wait, is the G in GNU pronounced like the G in GIMP?!?!?

      idk, but the G in GIMP (ugh) does stand for GNU

      i wonder if it’s also the official reason that it’s (typically) pronounced in GNOME?

        I know. I just didn’t know GNU was pronounced Gee-Noo, like in GIMP

        Isn’t GNOME also a GNU thing? GNU Image Manipulation Program Network O… Object… Model… uhh… Environment? Also, this means GNOME is pronounced like Genome, as in, like, Jeans and stuff, innit?
