Well, GNOME actually exceeds macOS minimalism… at least in macOS I have the ability to hide the top bar, several ways to launch apps, a systray, graphical configuration for most things, the ability to change keymappings, and so on. In GNOME, I need 3rd party tools for all of that.
- exyi 4y agoAt least in GNOME, I can turn off the laptop screen without closing the lid ...you can't compare minimalism/configurability in this way
- e12e 4y agoYeah - i make do with yabai and skhd. I'm curious how people use the Mac without having to use a touchpad/mouse for everything without third party additions (that in the case of proper desktop management / multiple monitors needs to disable system integrity protection to work...). Ed: one minor (but somewhat understandable annoyance) is the lack of a free/reserved for users modifier key. Macos with the adoption of bsd uses both command, option and control (even though it uses command for core things like copy/paste). The windows/super key is a blessing on Linux pcs - as it generally can be used for just that - window management). I know some rebind caps lock as a super (ed2: I mean "hyper", I think) (aka ALL THE MODIFIERS) key on Mac - but that leaves control in the wrong place :/ Maybe there's no RSI in Palo Alto? https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai https://github.com/koekeishiya/skhd https://github.com/koekeishiya/skhd
