Fair enough. I guess it depends how you look at it. I was thinking in terms of UX, in which case it’d be Mint Cinnamon or anything running KDE Plasma that’d be the Windows of the Linux world.
Gnome is amazing, without it I probably wouldn’t bother with Linux. Honestly nothing comes close UX-wise for me. I don’t want yet another Windows clone.
Minimising is a misuse of the gnome workflow, ideally you’d move a window to another desktop. Better than hiding it in some dock IMO.
Maximising I literally never used the button for anyway. I double clicked the title bar, dragged the program to the top, or pressed Super+Up. Aiming for a relatively small button just feels worse than all of those. It’s literally a pointless button and I feel like the only reason anybody has it it just because they’re used to seeing it/having a Windows UX.
It’s fine that you want your UX to work like Microsoft’s, but that doesn’t mean others are bad.
E: people get really upset when you point out that their Windows clones are windows clones lol. It’s not an insult.
Yeah. He had/has some great ideas when it comes to free software, but it doesn’t mean he isn’t a POS in other parts of his life.
I’m tired of the Linux world literally worshipping him. It’s weird. Hilariously it’s no doubt the same people who would cringe at the cultish following of Steve Jobs. Another person with some good ideas but was an awful person.
“The nominee is quoted as saying that if the choice of a sexual partner were protected by the Constitution, ‘prostitution, adultery, necrophilia, bestiality, possession of child pornography, and even incest and pedophilia’ also would be. He is probably mistaken, legally–but that is unfortunate. All of these acts should be legal as long as no one is coerced. They are illegal only because of prejudice and narrowmindedness.”

"I am skeptical of the claim that voluntarily pedophilia harms children. The arguments that it causes harm seem to be based on cases which aren’t voluntary, which are then stretched by parents who are horrified by the idea that their little baby is maturing. "

"There is little evidence to justify the widespread assumption that willing participation in pedophilia hurts children.
Granted, children may not dare say no to an older relative, or may not realize they could say no; in that case, even if they do not overtly object, the relationship may still feel imposed to them. That’s not willing participation, it’s imposed participation, a different issue. "

The craziest part is that Lwaxana knows how uncomfortable she’s making Picard by constantly coming onto him, because she can literally read his mind, and yet she does it anyway
