DragonFly has a nice logo:

but it's a dragon... that's another symbol for lucifer
Yes, there is the word dragon in the English word dragonfly, but not in other languages ​​(French, German, Spanish etc.).

"Dillon named the project after photographing a dragonfly in his yard, while he was still working on FreeBSD.[citation needed]"

An interesting page on the symbolism of this animal:

But I have not found any relevant reference regarding the choice of this logo for this BSD system...

All of this is based on paganism. And here it would be useful to remember what Christianity says about paganism and worship of idols ...
"paganism" is a christian idea, right?
plenty of christian have idols they love, while hating the ones others like...

Well certainly if you're a practising Christian.
Otherwise if you are Arthur Uther Pendragon or of his ilk you probably have little interest listening to Christian pronouncements and diktats.

I'm not religious myself but can see some sense in worshipping the Sun, Earth and fire over and above the mainstream cults religions.
