/g/
/g/ is 4chan's technology discussion board. Its users are referred to as /g/entleman.
Contributions
Over the years, /g/entleman of multiple generations have created dozens of projects like GNU/Linux distributions, free software discussion boards and all kinds of media. Listed below are just a fraction of what /g/ has created.
MooGNU
MooGNU is a copyleft alternative to the popular NyanCat animation. It was created by /g/ in response to the pre-emptive removal of NyanCat from the Desktop Environment MATE due to concerns by the developers about NyanCat's copyright status.
Tox
Tox is a work-in-progress secure instant messaging client. It was created by a few /g/entlemen in response to the 2013 global surveillance disclosures revealed by Edward Snowden, in the hopes that the masses would adopt an NSA-proof instant messaging client if encryption "just worked" out of the box.
