Sometime in the 90s:
"What are we gonna call it?"
"GNU Image Manipulation Program/GIMP. Huehuehuehue. trollface
"Yeah sure, whatever, it's not like millions are going to end up using this thing."
Literally. GIMP started as homework back in 1995 for two College Programmers who didn't want to write a compiler in scheme/lisp.
More like "huehuehue, millions are going to use this thing!"
Green is my pepper. 🫑🫑🫑
