This is just false; "app searching" as a "primary launch mechanism" works perfectly well in GNOME 3.
Perhaps you should ask you money back.

I think your parent's point which you quote was not that GNOME 3 doesn't do this, but rather that it's not unique in doing it—which is why it's not a selling point. (Just as, for example, one wouldn't mention, say, multi-tasking as a selling point of a modern OS, even though it is surely crucial.)
- qplex 10y agoAh, Thanks. I didn't read carefully enough. To comment more on the article: In my opinion, Unity wastes a ridiculous amount of screenspace showing that fancy iconbar.
- lproven 10y agoThat's fair enough. I set it to autohide on smaller screens, such as sub-14" notebooks. I do miss the old "dodge windows" config option, though -- that was very handy. A sort of auto-autohide that only triggered when you needed it.
