I run cinnamon on one of my thinkpads. It's interesting to me how there are a ton of things is does usability wise better than my work OS X laptop:
* The desktop overview 'expose' like thing gives me a large 2x3 grid of mini desktops, each containing mini windows that I can drag between different desktops. OS X displays a tiny 1x6 list of desktops and you can't drag windows between desktops directly.
* When I click the date in my panel I get a mini calendar popup.
* When I click the volume applet it has a entry right there for switching output devices. on OS X you have to option click the volume thing to get the hidden menu. Right click on an external mouse does not work.
Those are just the ones I notice on a daily basis..
- jrcii 11y agoYou can fix the calendar popup problem with an app called Day-O, which I agree should be the default.
- justinsaccount 11y agoCool.. That didn't end up working for me since I use dark mode, but I followed their suggestion to try http://www.mowglii.com/itsycal/ http://www.mowglii.com/itsycal/ instead which is working nicely.
