"It's MacOS interface for linux."
Yeah, you lost me right there. Everything I've seen here amounts to "it's pretty."
No mention of the stuff that matters to a lot of us, and I would be so bold as to suggest that it's more important -- namely "backwards compatibility with X." Look, a LOT of stuff relies on it, especially if you've tweaked your desktop in a way that works for you.
It's like you're offering me a Lamborghini, but I need my Toyota Tacoma because I have things to do.

- xiphmont 5y agoIn fact, the 'does what I want, does it well, and does little else" is very much the reason I like it. Whatever you think of it under the hood (and I have opinions, both positive and negative here), I do like using it. It's the first 'desktop' I wanted to use, and have used for more than a few weeks, approximately 10 years now. I've generally liked the changes and improvements over time. It finally budged me off of (wait for it) vtwm.gamma. To each his cup of tea.
