I run gnome on Ubuntu because of how bad it was in Unity, but that's also not perfect. On a two-monitor (both 4k) desktop where I'm not plugging in or unplugging screens, waking from sleep will commonly only bring up one screen, or the arrangement will have changed, or it'll get stuck in a mode where the screens go dark after 10 seconds of inactivity.
+1 that the UI scaling is nowhere near as good as OSX in either unity or gnome. I'm either stuck with normal sized fonts but oversized UI elements (button / text field height) or the reverse.
Definitely agree about the "Display" settings dialogue annoyance.
Also, Monitors with varying DPIs were so bad that I just bought another 4k screen rather than trying to make my 1080p one work alongside the 4k one.
- beefield 10y agoDebian Gnome dual monitor setup also darkens one monitor regularly when pugging/unplugging screens, took a while for me to understand that it only sets the screen brightness of one monitor to zero. So adjusting the brightness up bringd the monitor back alive again.
