Technically, MacOS is a BSD

MartinXYZ,

So is PlayStation’s OS.

I use windows and Linux btw

Aux,

Linux is just an app for Windows. Always has been.

laurelraven,

Eh, my main reason for going KDE is every time I try Gnome, it feels like “what do I do now” and “where is the program I opened”

I know that would get better with time spent using it, but then again, KDE feels like I can make it do what I want a lot easier

And none of the other DEs look as nice and polished, which, I know, that’s not the important part … But dammit, I’m gonna be spending a lot of time staring at it, I’d like it to look good to me at least

The last time I was meaningfully using Linux was around the time of Ubuntu 8.04 - my experience was the opposite of this.

When I have the time, I’ll be dipping back in on Zorin (which I think defaults to modded KDE) - I’ve spun up VM, and it seems like it’s worth a shot… I just need to confirm it’ll play the small handful of games I play, find a slicer app, and pull the trigger. Damn near everything else is Web-based or self-hosted.

laurelraven,

Yeah, Gnome is VERY different than in 2008

psud,

Gnome is better on that now, but I have been using gnome since back when KDE was using non-free libraries to be prettier

Gnome probably isn’t the best free desktop anymore, but I guess I’m used to it

laurelraven,

There’s a lot to be said for familiarity and its impact on productivity… Which is why I hate when UI layouts change for no apparent reason other than to be different.

psud,

It’s also good to try and work the way the system is designed for — or maybe to share a way of working with the design leads

Gnome likes you to have several things open, spread across the different desktops, and you really want to know the shortcuts for jumping between stuff

WhiskyTangoFoxtrot,

That’s why I stopped using Gnome. I loved Gnome 2.x, but then they went all screwey with Gnome 3 so I switched to Cinnamon.

Abnorc,

I dunno, the people in the top left look pretty happy.

drcabbage, (edited )

They do, and judging by their environment, pretty wealthy as well. Plus a happy family. As opposed to being unhinged enough to give finger guns to a laptop or be bombarded with “tech stuff”. Great ad for gnome :)

(I’m just joking around. KDE is great too.)

FMEEE,

True. Just true

aeleoglyphic,

As a kubuntu user I approve. 👍

OpenBOX?

BigDanishGuy,

Gnome = KDE = bloat

I don’t care about a modern feel, I need to not care about learning new interfaces. Xfce is fine for me.

Kanda,

Xfce is bloat, just use the tty

owenfromcanada,
@owenfromcanada@lemmy.world avatar

TTY is bloat, just use two buttons to input ones and zeros.

BigDanishGuy,

Sometimes I actually do prefer to just SSH in to a tmux session.

kaffiene,

Right! You use Gnome when there’s good natural light =)

devilish666,

Bottom images more like people that using i3 or openbox

Ehm… Elliot uses Gnome.

possiblylinux127,

KDE is fairly unstable and requires me to change settings to make it work for me. Gnome just works

nte,

I really don’t see the worth in hassling with KDE. Theres nothing wrong with GNOME

AphoticDev,
@AphoticDev@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

I used to love Gnome. Now I hate how it looks. Looks like they tried to mix MacOS and Android and just royally botched it.

librechad,

I have been actively using GNOME for about a year now, honestly, it is the best one out of all of the desktop enviorments availible right now. I’m also pretty sure GNOME just got $1M+ to continue working on it. I don’t mind the look, it is very simple.

ExfilBravo,

gnomelook.org

btr_fan87, (edited )

That link is incorrect. Should be gnome-look.org

possiblylinux127,

Well the good news is that you are free to use whatever you want

ILikeBoobies,

I think they nailed it

It’s what a desktop should look like

I wish people wouldn’t downvote comments like this. The downvote button isn’t an “I disagree with you” button and downvoting people just because you disagree with their opinion is silly.

voidMainVoid,

Maybe not for you. For me, I spend hours fiddling with it trying to get it the way I want, get frustrated, and eventually go back to KDE.

voidMainVoid,

GNOME doesn’t even have the settings I need to make it work.

Holzkohlen,

Yo, what? Nobody ever uses Gnome without extensions.

possiblylinux127, (edited )

3er7nv

OK that’s not entirely true as I use blur my shell and dash to dock

psud,

That’s such a role reversal. It used to be that gnome couldn’t do half the things KDE could, and was too configurable to be easy

Instant upvote because KDE is stupid underrated

FMEEE,

I don’t think it’s that underrated. But yah it’s a little underrated.

hperrin,

GUIs are for the weak. Monitors are for the weak. My PC is connected to a keyboard and a printer. Hackerman

You use a keyboard and a peinter? weak! I throw magnets over the memory chips and use a multi-meter. /l334

HauntedCupcake,

Ughhh! Filthy casuals like you using the screen on a multimeter! I bet you don’t even staple the electrodes to your nipples! Probably use clamps instead 🙄

WhiskyTangoFoxtrot,

I just do the calculations in my head.

Pantherina,

I eat nuts and sleep in a cave
