From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Stupendous Sunfish

Bugs, specifically beatles
Apple's lawsuit with Apple Corps/The Beatles was lengthy.
Do you think Canonical have the cash and energy to fight that battle?
Interesting read. It seems like Aple Corps sued anyone with Apple as their name.
But it would be a far stretch: Linux Ubuntu 26.04 Dung Beetle
Honorary Human
Horny Human

Domestic cat

Pigeon and specifically an Indian green pigeon
Quokka
Containerized Cat for the Docker version?
Dock Dog would work too.
Bober (Edit - I just realised Bionic Beaver already exists)
Tardigrade. Also Macaw if it hasn't been used yet.
Tenacious Tardigrade could work. Maybe.
