Can anyone speak to how this compares to Quicksilver on OS X? It sounds similar, albeit with the added ability of being able to manage window sizing.

- donniezazen 14y agoNever used OS X but Unity search seems to be better than Gnome's.
- Andrex 14y agoUnity is probably slightly better, but Gnome Shell's is a little quicker in my experience. Aside from that, Unity's search is getting Amazon ads and I can't imagine that's going to be positive for the user experience.
- keithpeter 14y agoThere is a kill-switch in System Settings, has been since the brown stuff hit the fan and I expect Canonical realised they had to do something. This has been discussed in another current HN thread...

- Andrex 14y agoLike most things in Linux, terminal commands are the solution to everything, so I like comparing the out-of-box experiences. :)
- Symmetry 14y agoGnome-Do is pretty precisely analogous to OS X's Quicksilver.
