The codenames for every major Debian release are named after characters from Pixar’s Toy Story franchise. Debian’s unstable release is fittingly named after Sid, an unstable character from the Toy Story movies.

    In the branding, but the name of the installed applications in the UI do not contain “gnome”.

      It’s not just the branding, it’s the actual command.

      Do you want to launch the hardware monitor? gnome-system-monitor. The terminal? gnome-terminal. And so forth.

      Your DE They will give these clearer and easier names to search from the menu, as well as more recognisable icons, but that’s not on Gnome

      Still makes the command slightly more of a PITA

        Do you think DEs just have a huge list of package names to app names, or how do you imagine this would work?

        In reality, it’s of course fully on Gnome, as it’s part of their code. Nobody except for Gnome has anything to do with the name that’s being shown.

          I did think it worked like that but the package maintainers setting these does make more sense. Thanks for letting me know!

          I also edited my comment to reflect this
