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 🍀

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!

      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.

          Based on other posts by the author (they have posted AI generated art before, and attribute when it’s not AI generated), I’m pretty sure this is AI generated.

          The fine print in the mastodon toot:

          Fine print: Happy first of the fourth!

          Says Happy first of the fourth, implying first of the fourth (month - April), which is what I based my own hint that this was an April fools joke in a veiled way.
