    According to one alternative posted in the past by a member of the Furry community?

    But yeah, you’re wrong. Linux is predominantly portrayed by a penguin mascot, Tux. Some distros are named after penguin species too (Gentoo for example)

        I think for obvious reasons, hahaha. Tux still seems like a nornal animal-penguin. Not too many people like anthropomorphised animal characters, especially if they suddenly wear clothes and walk on their hind legs. Just gives of Disney-esque furry vibes.

      Oh THATS why it’s called Gentoo!

      I knew it was a penguin and I knew about the distro, but I never put the two together
