I mean, it was great when CSD fans had their Gnome 3, and title/menubar fans had their Xfce.
The points I listed aren't just "harumph I don't like change!" complaints, they're actual usability issues for me. I will agree the CSD approach is nicer for tablets and for "less bloat"; but I like the "more power" of a proper menu and toolbar more.
It's too bad we can't both be happy. I don't have the resources to develop an entire desktop environment on top of all the projects I'm already working on =(
- unhammer 10y agoI use the "hide titlebar when maximised" option in XFCE. I'd actually prefer hiding it when "snapped" to either side too. Thinking about it, since I tend to use Alt+mousedrag to move and alt+f10 to (un)maximise, I don't think there's a point in having a titlebar for me …
- arximboldi 10y agoThat puts things into perspective... and I agree that in the end, with these unresolvable positions, at least with Free Software we get some degree of freedom of choice :) Now that Xfce is being Gnome-ized, have you considered this: http://lxde.org/ http://lxde.org/? Maybe it suits your taste (lightweight, no CSD).
