Perhaps an unpopular opinion, but I love Gnome, and it just keeps improving. It's got some annoying issues, such as when the designers decide to willy-nilly drop important features inbetween releases (like the Ethernet connection indicator, and the backtracking in gparted), but it's been great otherwise. A genuinely good desktop manager for linux.
- broodbucket 13y agoNo change they made ever had consequences as dire as when they removed transparency from GNOME Terminal. Never forget.
- krakensden 13y agoIt's sad, but I've switched to xterm
- sramkrishna 13y agoa strange switch, xterm doesn't have transparency eitiher and as far as correctness goes, gnome-terminal is very correct compared to others. So I have no idea why you would switch to xterm.
- middleclick 13y agoWhen GNOME 3 came out, I was upset and hated it. Then I moved on to running i3 without a DE and I don't think I am using a DE again. It's surprising how little features of a DE I need. Right now, I have nothing that requires a DE.
- massysett 13y agoThe only thing I miss is power management and buttons. I get tired of futzing around to get my brightness buttons to work, and then a newer kernel changes the interfaces again.
- middleclick 13y agoI must admit I am not doing power management of any sorts. For brightness, I use xbacklight and it works pretty well.
