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 watched the first 2 season, still have season one on dvd on my shelf, but dropped it during the 3rd season. Didn’t really feel any shame the songs where good and the characters were fun but 3 season didn’t hook me as much. Idk if I’d go back to watching it or not my attention is too split for now to sit down and watch.
