Everybody blames Linux DEs for looking inconsistent, but every time I have to use Windows 10, I see an OS with more than 5 different UI styles. There's no consistency among the OS anymore eversince Windows 7.
Pardon me, but I think Microsoft should get their shit together if they want to stop losing users and devs to MacOS.
Having a new UI style on the Desktop and every single click on it leads to a completely unpredictable UI doesn't have anything to do with "center".
When people ask me what to get I always answer "just get a macbook" because even when I would love to give them a shiny Linux laptop, the amount of maintenance work on there is insanely high. Macbooks compared to my Linux systems are basically maintenance free once they are setup.
Of course that depends on whether you want to develop software on it...but let's not kid ourselves here: most users are not developers. And most users don't want to use i3wm or the Terminal.
- lostmsu 5y agoHuh? Who ever blamed Linux DEs for looking inconsistent, except the dedicated Linux users? Consistency is not that big of a deal. It is usually poor hardware support, installation/update issues, and lack of software where Linux falls flat on its face.
