i dont think they could have possibly chosen a word to make me want to use it less than gamified.

The project simply has "game inspired menu system". OP, probably unaware for what gamify truly means, used this term. That said a gamified system monitor will've been quite funny project to see. "Achievement unlocked: Run out of memory!"

There was something years ago, Doom, but all the monsters were PIDs. If you wanted a process dead, you shot it.

Exactly. Apologizing for poor choice of words (English not being my first language). TIL what "gamification" actually means.

Title should be a textbook example of language misuse.

Nowhere on the GitHub page does the project describe itself as "gamified", it's just the title of the HN submission

It's not obviously the project's choice itself. See thread here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45857774

Would a mention of loot boxes move you?
