I've gotta hand it to the new GNU Linux mascot replacing Tux as of today, brabix. Love the matrix themed T-shirt!

Ref: this post celebrating the first of the fourth ๐Ÿ€

Edit: The Big Day is over. For those of you (I'm kinda guessing there were quite a few) who weren't sure what this was (and for everyone else too, thanks for being a sport) (Happy??) April Fools! (please tell me you already knew this!)

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

Is this an April fools joke? You should cite the sauces

[-] GravelPieceOfSword@lemmy.ca 4 points 7 months ago

Sauce listed here in my post.

The reference to the first of the fourth (month - April) implying it is an April fools joke too, in the same place.
