Do you know why there’s KDE, XFCE and others? Because there’s also a lot of people who dislike GNOME.

If we are getting pedantic here, the above quote is clearly implying that alternatives exist and are actively developed because people dislike GNOME. Your statement does not take in to account the possibility that people just like the other alternatives, and may still like GNOME as well, or feel indifference towards it.

No one is claiming that GNOME has the superior desktop experience. Rather, GNOME has a more opinionated experience, that suits some people, and not others. For some people, it will be superior. For others, they will prefer KDE, XFCE etc.

Umm well akshually 🤓👆: KDE doesn’t exist because people don’t like GNOME lol. GNOME was made because KDE uses QT, which used to be proprietary.

Thanks for the reply :)

Good site, thank you! :)

Thanks for the recommendations! (I should have done this around Black Friday lol, that would have been smart)

Heh, I think the link is a little broken…

No issues tho, others have linked it in other comments. Thanks for the reply!

Thanks for the recommendations! Linking to a build was a nice touch :)

This is all a lot to take in lol, I might have to start a spreadsheet.

This! Post! Wants people! Not to commit murder!

i hate that voice

C U B E

what?

Ha yeah sure. Haven’t used Gnome in over 3 years, daily drive KDE. Just happen to not be 12.

This is honestly really sad. I really don’t get the hostility towards Gnome and it’s devs.

Gnome is certainly quite opinionated, and isn’t to everyone’s tastes, but this doesn’t make it ok for memes like this (a pretty shit meme regardless).

Gnome has done a lot for the linux ecosystem, and Gnome developers don’t owe you anything.

Grow up.

mmmm donutussy

im sticking out my gyatt for the rizzler

I’m sorry, but your comments on the Steam Deck post certainly did not help with the hostility, as you were being quite hostile yourself.

In that post, one person made a snarky retort, and clearly you were understandably upset, but I would argue a good chunk of the hostility in that post comes from you. I think possibly even just starting the post with the title containing “basically bricked my deck” is already framing the discussion in a somewhat inflammatory manner.

Yeah. Same company as the Simpsons comics, although I don’t think they still making comics nowadays (Bongo comics). Used to read them a tonne as a kid.

and you care why?

wow 5’8” is quite the schlong
