From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Pretty sure it's black on transparent. Not the most visible, especially if your client makes the background black.

I switched to light mode to take a look at it and now I can confirm it looks absolutely terrible.

Can confirm, it looked better as a pitch black blob.

Ugh. Requiring your users enable light mode to look at an image is just cruel and unusual punishment...

You, my friend, are a truly unsung hero. ❤️

Also, damn, that's an ugly logo...

As a calligrapher, this is not pleasing to look at. Far from it.

As not a calligrapher, I agree.
