I mean one of the most important pieces of software we always mention when converting users from Windows is called GIMP, I think "ricing" isn't nearly the most concerning term in the libre software world.

GIMP isn't a bacronym, it is an acronym.

Also, my understanding of BDSM indicates that gimps consent to their position.

GIMP isn’t a bacronym, it is an acronym.

Doesn't matter for the point at hand.

my understanding of BDSM

Gimp is a very pejorative term for a person with a limp.

I forgot it was ever used that way.

Fair enough
