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.

Welcome to Lemmy! Spoilers look like this:
::: spoiler CW text Spoilered text :::Resulting in:

There is a little button on the web interface (I don’t know if you use an app), an ! in a diamond or tilted box (see the bottom of the trans mega thread post), it will insert the spoiler code for you
Huh, the app I’m using (Sync) has an entirely different way of adding spoilers.
I think sync originally was made for reddit.
Yeah, that makes sense. On my end, both methods make spoiler text.
Anyway, I’ll try and change it, so it works for everyone else
Yea. I originally though you were manually writing it like that because you had gotten used to e.g. Discord.
