I was hoping I wasn’t alone. I pronounced it genome for years before some neck beard took me to task for it. They also were mad at me for pronouncing CentOS like DOS (centahs rather than cent oh ess).

I also used to pronounce Gnome this way.

I’ll add I used to say “deb eye ann”, for Debian

And used to say “uh lie us”, for alias

I didn’t have a lot of people to talk about Linux with lol

To be fair, Debian is a portmanteau of Debra and Ian so most people don’t pronounce it the way Ian Murdock intended.
