But which Distro?
Ubuntu is such a productivity killer since it has not taskbar.
Anybody here using Ubuntu and changed the desktop environment to one with a taskbar? If so, which one and how did things go?
- Shared404 5y ago> Ubuntu is such a productivity killer since it has not taskbar. By that logic it's impossible to be productive in macOS? That aside, Kubuntu is supposed to be pretty stable is my understanding.
- phendrenad2 5y agoThe MacOS dock is actually fairly close to the Windows taskbar: A simple row of icons that shows what apps you have open, and you can click them repeatedly to switch windows. Not sure what OP means, but I did feel that the Ubuntu "sidebar" is inferior. Slow, laggy, weird popups, forces you to scroll to see all of your open apps. It's just badly designed. KDE is much better...
- Shared404 5y agoThat's pretty close to my experience with the Ubuntu side bar, though it definitely has its issues. I don't use vanilla Ubuntu very often though, so I don't know much about it.
- beardyw 5y agoI swapped to Ubuntu when Win 7 support ended. That was 18.04. Now on 20.01. I have always had a taskbar. What version are you thinking of?
