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.

    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
