Nah, it's pretty inexcusable for Gnome to not surface such a setting. LXQt's mouse configuration GUI lets you configure it, and LXQt has no more than a handful of people working on it. Gnome has more developer resources and could implement this easily, but they also have an attitude problem and bad priorities.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 4y agoYeah, the clear problem here is GNOME and it's arrogant disregard for users... Which I guess really is historically in line with Linux culture, unfortunately.
- Legogris 4y agoGNOME and Ubuntu are not representative of "Linux culture".
- KyeRussell 4y ago“Linux Culture” is also similarly full of these sorts of “no true Scotsman” arguments, as well as deferring blame to other projects, and “oh you just simply need to use [package] Instead”. These are all things that make Linux on the desktop inaccessible. The moment you start talking about weird cultural minutiae like this, the whole thing is already incredibly inaccessible in my eyes.
- Legogris 4y ago“Computer Culture” is also similarly full of these sorts of “no true Scotsman” arguments, as well as deferring blame to other systems, and “oh you just simply need to use [operating system] Instead”. These are all things that make computing on the desktop inaccessible. The moment you start talking about weird cultural minutiae like this, the whole thing is already incredibly inaccessible in my eyes. Seems approximately equally true and arbitrary.
- int_19h 4y ago"Linux culture" is whatever most Linux users use. I don't know about Gnome, but Ubuntu is certainly that.
- fomine3 4y agoIt's sad that Red Hat adopted GNOME for desktop.
