Sure! And did you read my comment? I don't say "people who want to recreate their own desktop from all the software available" but rather "gtd" kind of people, who doesn't mind if their nvidia driver is from 4 months and not from yesterday. As long as everything works who cares? Sure, OP has his points (although the neovim is not the case anymore), but same bugs appear in other distros, unfortunately :(
- ricardobeat 10y agoSorry, but the parent commenter had a point - it sounds like you did not pay enought attention to the article. > elementary almost completely removes menus. As a heavy keyboard shortcut user this makes discovering shortcuts difficult > the Mac App Store, Homebrew and Arch Linux. With each of these it’s a simple matter to install the latest version of a tool or application. On elementary I ran into a number of cases where software I wished to install did not exist in the Ubuntu repos or were outdated > as time went on I started running into more bugs [...] At this point the system was actively harming my productivity This doesn't seem to fare very well for your 'as long as everything works' view. The difficulty to install popular software is the exact opposite of that. I love Elementary OS and its UI style/guidelines; found it many years ago, but have stayed with OSX since. As the author mentions, basing it on a Ubuntu LTS release comes with consequences and is a questionable decision for a desktop.
