I have no idea why Gnome keeps on insisting on breaking expectations. From the shell as a whole to the widgets and even the window titlebars they seem to insist on being different for the sake of being different.
- abenga 2y agoBecause their choices are better, at least for some of us. Users who prefer the traditional desktop paradigm have a wealth of alternative DEs to choose from.
- MadnessASAP 2y agoI suppose my brutally minimalist Sway config with barely there titlebars and a skinny little status bar and not an icon, button, or widget in sight doesn't give me great standing to call for a respect of conventions. I suppose I should say I found Gnomes luridly chunky decorations and widgets to be personally offensive.
- abenga 2y agoWhat widgets? Gnome has just the one black bar at the top.
- MadnessASAP 2y agoAnd it's a thick monster with all kinds of extra crap (I'm my not so humble opinion) shoved in it.
- abenga 2y agoIt literally has an activities button, the time and date, and a tiny button for interacting with settings on the right.
