The company I work for started a six month pilot program during which workers can choose to replace Windows 11 with Ubuntu on their laptops.
In order to celebrate this great opportunity I’ve created my own version of the Microslop logo and ordered a bunch of stickers for me and my colleagues.
Feel free to use this image and put it on whatever you want! :)
Suggestion / Endorsement
In case you need some inspiration, there’s currently an offer by StickerMule for 50 die cut stickers (76mm × 20mm) at ~60% off. 😉

It’s a shame Ubuntu is the only Linux option you’re given, but I would still take that over Windows.
Yeah… But it makes sense for a company. 15 years of support for LTS versions and you can pay for enterprise support. It seems that we will even get Sudo rights so I think I will manage.
Please keep us posted about the pilot project.
Maybe I’m going to create another post for this somewhere. But even if not, I can keep you updated by commenting on this one! I personally should be able to switch sometime next week.
I was about to say you really gonna rip the GN design and change tux and call it a day and not even credit them? Then saw the very bottom.
I was absolutely sure that somebody is going to call me out if I don’t credit them. I wasn’t let down it seems.
That’s the WSL penguin…
It is! I wanted to use icons from Windows only that’s why.
It’s ours now! #TakeTuxBack
wow which company is that?! so i can avoid them because i’m a microsoft lackey
Needs fewer pixels
Art!
I’d be interested to hear an update on the pilot program in a few months. How many of your coworkers have chosen Ubuntu?
Can do!
As of yesterday, there were around 20 people listed as recipients in the last email we got. This number may sound small but as far as I know not many people have heard about this pilot since it wasn’t really advertised. And I’m actively trying to get even more people on board!
Either way, I’m very happy that my company is doing this especially since we are a semi-state-owned company.
“Inspired by” = ripped off
I mean the idea isn’t that novel to begin with as can be seen with this Reddit thread for example but either way I didn’t make a secret out of it. I got my GamerNexus shirt very recently so yeah, I was influenced by their design when looking for a sticker motive. 🤷♂️
This. It’s GNs t-shirt
