FOSS Mascots: a guide
Tux
Friendshaped
Has the calming aura of a Bodhisattva.
Calming smile tells you everything is going to be okay.
Xenia
Came third in the Mascot competition in the 90s, was rediscovered in the 2020s by cathodegaytube and they TRANSED HER GENDER.
Hacker trans foxgirl represents a good chunk of the Linux Community.
Coolest mascot.
Konqi (KDE)
Adorable!
Has many friends!
Yay!
Xue (XFCE)
Existentially terrified!
Why are you running? Who's chasing you? Are you trying to power the computer from your wheel?
Needs a blanket nest, a weed gummy and their comfort show.
Wilbur (GIMP)
Happy to see you!
Wants to help!
Please ignore the fact the program's name is "Gimp".
Kiki (Krita)
Delightful!
Excellent demonstration of Krita's capabilities!
Hatsune Miku vibes!
Freedo (Linux-libre)
Just a little guy!
Likes to be clean, doesn't like proprietary software.
Scubadubdub.
Geeko (OpenSUSE)
No thoughts
Head empty
Only cmatrix inside that head
Gnu (GNU)
Untrustworthy
His smile concerns me
Why is he smiling, what does he know?
Beastie (BSD)
Somehow more trustworthy than GNU.
Oddly cute.
Hail Beastie!
Puffy (OpenBSD)
Reminds me of that fish meme
The one that went
"Don't pee on the floor, use the commodore!"
Blinky (FreeDOS)
Less thoughts than geeko
Head emptier than geeko
Nothing but a blank terminal screen.
Larry (Gentoo Linux)
Worst drawn cow.
Gentoo users have lots of time on their hands while their stuff is compiling.
They could use that compiling time to learn how to draw!
Sudo Sandwich (Sudo)
OH GOD
I understand the XKCD reference...
The more I look at it the more it terrifies me.
