Handed a GNOME 3 PC to my dad.
He got it right away. The multitasking in GNOME is just so fluid and efficient compared to any other operating environment, and it's just so... intuitive.
As an OS X user, I find GNOME more consistent and easy to use, to be quite honest with you. I'm just holding out until Wine gets to the point where CS6 is supported.
- sbuk 13y agoLet me start by say that I am actually a fan of Linux, but not much of a fan of the community that surrounds it and for what it's worth, this is just my opinion. Obviously everybody's milage will undoubtedly vary! My personal experience of Gnome 3 is the polar opposite of yours. I cannot stand it. The UI elements are just horrible and I find the paradigm clunky and lacking in coherence. In fact I find the experience similar to Windows 8, with it's confused metaphors. Unity, while visually more appealing is not much better in terms of usability; the lens paradigm I find irksome. While there is no doubt, IMHO, that it should be surprising that anyone can get "real" work done with the software available on the various Linux desktops available, I feel that there has be a regression in the UX that really does need addressing.
