- pmontra 5y agoAt least GNOME designers apparently are using GNOME and they still let me configure my desktop as I want it to be. I undid some man years of their work and used some others.
- garaetjjte 5y agoUh, I think GNOME3 suffers from the same authoritarian minimalism design problem.
- pmontra 5y agoIndeed but at least they dogfood their work and they like the result (can't understand why.)
- prmoustache 5y agoSome people like Gnome. I like using gnome on my Lenovo Yoga as it is as efficient being keyboard driven as it is using the desktop as a tablet.
- alpaca128 5y agoI usually prefer tiling WMs but among the more modern Linux desktops Gnome is my favorite. It does all I need in a polished way. At least since the performance improvements, initially Gnome 3 was just too sluggish.
- Sohcahtoa82 5y agoWin2K was great. When I used Win7, I used the Windows Classic theme which made it look like Win2K. I use Windows Blinds on my Win10 system to make it look like Win98, which is close enough to 2K. And for extra lulz, my screensaver is the Windows 95 loading screen.
