I remember reading some good jokes about that a while ago.

- GNOME's logo is a huge footprint, but it is not clearly established whether it is a huge memory footprint or a huge disk footprint.

- It has been theorized that the logo was originally slated to have two footprints, but the developers found having 2 feet to be an unnecessary feature.

That last one kinda hints at the current toxic GTK developer team.

It's just a joke, I have a lot of respect for the GTK (and Qt) teams. I don't think it's fair to call them toxic, they have a lot on their plate.

I don't think the GTK team is all that bad, the majority of them are solid people with a good head on their shoulders. It seems that GNOME is where they sent the self-righteous loonies though.
