Is forking the "GNU Image Manipulation Program" in order to give it a "less offensive name" a good idea or bad idea?

Maybe... Developers wants to develop, not "waste time" with marketing.
So - for sure - if they went all in with a caustic SJW attitude because the name hurts their fragile hearts then it's comprehensible that they said NO.
Had they went there with a constructive / non-autistic proposal, maybe it could have worked... I mean, Gimp sucks at marketing and should be use by marketeers for their job ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@umbertotozzato @lunduke Yeah, FLOSS developers are known for being insensitive folk like you who will call SJW and autistic to anyone that brings conciousness to a topic that may hurt others but they didn't know. That's not new
Either way, I don't think they would accept. I'm hoping to this fork to bring new things to the table because GIMP is kinda clunky
@umbertotozzato @lunduke They said that's been tried before on their homepage, but the proposal always has been buried. So yeah, forking is the only thing left in that case
