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 will probably give hosting one a go, that's one of the first things my mind went to. yeah it sucked, I'm sure I just got very unlucky considering the vibe of the game but I was hungry and in a bad mood and ended up getting in a scrap with them instead of just wisely muting. thanks for the kind words
Yelling at transphobes is always praxis. Don't let doing that steal your joy though. Reclaiming your peace is just as valid
