time to switch my monitor vertically

[–] oce@jlai.lu 10 points 6 months ago

Personally, I prefer to have my monitor at 45° because I like to follow the 3 courses "service à la Russe" code structure. The entrée and the desert of my code are light and short, while the main course in the middle has the longest lines.

I'm struggling to see it being a reason to change the Linux mascot? I'm not criticizing, just curious to there being a reason as to why it needs to be changed at all? I'm new to the Linux space, so please fill me in if there is anything I'm missing here, but what's wrong with the already universally adopted penguin?

the giraffe has sunglasses so it is better. (Also, you might want to take a look at the date)

The replacement of that old penguin was long overdue. Much better, the first positive change to Linux in a long time!
