Xenia, the fox girl mascot of Linux, was first designed in 1996 by Alan Mackey. She was meant to be an alternative to Tux, the official mascot.
She had fallen into obscurity, but was noticed by a Twitter user in 2019 and was redrawn as a fox girl. But as it turned out, Xenia was originally meant to be male! The original creator, Alan, was cool with this, saying "It matches the transition of a lot of the smartest, nerdiest Linux users I know" and "And sure, you made her trans!".
So now we have a trans Linux mascot. And I think that's neat.

i use Arch btw
no i don't i use Fedora
we use NixOS btw
Braver than the troops
I tried NixOS a couple of times, had no idea what I was doing to the point where I just went back to running arch or fedora.
Arch is nice and all, but you should totally try using Fedora
I mean, if you have a setup that works and all, it's probably not going to be much of a difference, minus getting SELinux and Secure Boot (unless you already set both of those up). I do like how quickly arch is able to boot, not that Fedora is much slower. It just uses GRUB instead of systemd-boot.
technically i lied, I use Nobara
Nobara is so nice switched to it from win10 on my main machine a few months ago. KDE Plasma is amazing too, still prefer i3 on a laptop but don't think I'll ever look back on a decently powerful desktop.
Nobara is based on Fedora, therefore
arch on the laptop, fedora on the desktop ๐
