Most of the posts here are webcomics made by pmjv, the poster of this thread – though other people can and sometimes do post their own art. pmjv makes a surrealist webcomic (see Analogue Nowhere) that incorporates various themes and imagery related to Unix-derived and Unix-adjacent operating systems.
Note that the imagery drawn from is not just things associated with Linux (which famously has a penguin mascot), but also OpenBSD (started by Theo de Raadt and which has a pufferfish mascot), Plan 9 (which has a bunny mascot called Glenda), etc.
There are elements from other fandoms (e.g. Cirno, who appears in some comics, is from Touhou and is associated with ⑨ because of an old joke – which seems to have become entangled with Plan 9 in pmjv’s mind), influences from tech politics, and whatever other crazy things are bouncing around in pmjv’s head.

It’s good surrealist fun, generally.
Glenda looks like the Go gopher
This is of course a clever nod to Renée French who authored both plan9’s Glenda and Go’s gopher, and not the fact that I cannot draw.
Also to add cirno is the defualt host name for 9front system. 9front is a plan 9 fork
The rabbit hole goes deeper than I realized!
Just need to follow the white rabbit
Or swallow the rabbit whole
This link to the wiki is incredibly helpful for me in order to gain context about the comic series. Thank you kind stranger!
