We honestly should rename GIMP. Itβs a bad name. I think a new and better acronym would substantially improve brand recognition. Something like:
Free Utility for Creative Kits, Brushes, Overlays, & Imaging
FUCKBOI
Hint: :q!

You forgot that for whatever reason we have to have an acronym in our acronym.
FUCKBOI Utility for Creative Kits, Brushes, Overlays, & Imaging
it's have to be recursive too.
I'm So Meta Even This Acronym
This individual for position of authority! I endorse this.
There was a fork that did nothing but replace the name and graphics to GLIMPSE
The gimp oss community is really fucking rabid about NOT EVER changing the name
Probably because they never thought to change it to FUCKBOI.

Are you the person who write us law's titles?
I genuinely believe Fedora would be far more popular if it had a different name

mascot is a furry face in a black leather mask with a brush in the mouth

That's what you see?
I think a few Rorschach tests might be in your future.

I remember there was an effort to rename Coq, it turned out.. well? https://rocq-prover.org/
As for git.. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/git It doesn't seem it would be renamed.. However, got seems to be quite a nice acronym: https://gameoftrees.org/
This is an outrage!
Coq was such an excellent name. Short, memorable, unique, related to its origins and logo, as well as funny.
yet it's GIMP YouTube decides to censor
