Seems you missed all the design documents made for GNOME 3. Top bar is simplistic at this moment on purpose. There are more ideas behind it. However, just because you can put stuff somewhere, doesn't mean it is a good idea to do so.
The idea is to minimize distractions. Not to optimize for mouse clicks, hot corners, etc.
Defining your own criteria as the reason to call it deeply flawed it a bit easy IMO.
- acabal 15y agoI'm judging it as it stands now, not as some document somewhere says it might be one day, maybe, if the developers get around to it. If they don't want people judging it, they shouldn't have released it until they felt it was ready to be judged. I'm also judging it by criteria used by many UI experts. How DEs approach Fitt's Law is an important metric. The law exists for a reason, because UI experts found it came up again and again in real-life testing. Defining your own criteria by saying "works for me, wontfix" is also a bit easy.
