I've been using Gnome for 24 years and have only ever pronounced it like the thing you'd put on your lawn if you're an old person in Florida. But I guess that's what happens when you only ever read about a subject and never talk about it in person.
My son and I got into a big argument about how that's pronounced. He said imm-gurr and I said imager. Since he's younger I assumed he was right, but it sounded so stupid I refused to yield. 😂
If we're being pedantic, yes 🙂

That's imgur for me. I've always pronounced it imm-gurr instead of imager.

I'm Gur.

@Anticorp
There are so many computer terms like that! Gnu, which is the closest parallel to Gnome. SUSE Linux. Gif. Lib.
Me, I apparently learned most of them incorrectly. But those (mis)pronunciations are ingrained and comfy now.
