Is there any story or reason behind the name? Or is it just simply a random choice of word? Does it mean anything outside being a hat haha.
edit: i feel stupid for asking now, should have guessed it had to do with Redhat…

Mark Ewing used to wear a red Cornell lacrosse cap and when he would help in computer labs people would look for a the man in the red hat. The company was called Red Hat after Mark but their logo has been a person in a fedora for a long time.
Fedora is a community continuation of Red Hat Linux, which was discontinued in favor of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Back when I was starting out Fedora wasn’t a thing, you downloaded Red Hat Linux for free directly from the company or could buy it in a box.
Didn’t know the backstory, thanks for sharing!
I’m relieved to hear he didn’t walk around in a red fedora.
M’computer
But he was wearing just a red hat…
