GNOME is getting "better" for some power users and becomes unusable for the regular normies.
My decade long perception was that GNOME was changing to target normal users at the expense of power users. It appears they are failing both ways?
- itskwanyall 6y agoI don’t have much personal experience with GNOME so I can’t comment on that specifically, but I’ve worked on making a primarily dev-focussed product more friendly to marketers in an attempt to speed up their workflow. The problem was we did that based on out perception of how marketers think of the platform to drive the changes. Long story short, it made the devs more frustrated and it was still too technical for the marketers.
- amiga-workbench 6y agoWith a sufficiently large pile of extensions I'm finding gnome just fine as a power user. It's sadly the only DE where enough attention to detail has been applied to many parts of the UI. Even if I disagree with certain UI choices, they have been executed exceptionally well.
