  • The real question is what Window Manager has the best GUI… you can run any window manager on any distro - it just takes a little work.

    If you’re talking about out-of-the-box without any user customization, I’ll make a couple suggestions that I think work for new Linux users - not that I’m saying you’re green, but most power users know they can fully design the OS from the ground up if needed.

    PopOS - In between - GNOME-like with some PopOS customizations under the hood.

    ElementaryOS - MacOS-like WM thats clean fresh and easy to understand

    Mint - Cinnamon DM, Windows-like with some customization possible



  • As I read your post, I had a lot of the same thoughts as others have replied… first I was ready to kill my /r/ accounts and run away forever [which I would regardless, except the masses are there…] and then I didn’t full trust the reason behind your ban - I’ve talked about other open source/federated projects on Reddit, a lot

    And I assume the truth of the matter lies somewhere in between… regardless of that, tho, I appreciate your post. I’m sorry that you got the boot from big brother and I’m happy that you’re here, using Lemmy and whatever Lemmy community you’re on. [I’m on Beehaw.org.]

    While I use Reddit, I think I know the solution for me… I’m going to start talking about Lemmy there in all my /r/tech* subs. Lemmy is worthy of the talk, and for users to come over… I’ll promote Beehaw.org, as I fully agree with their policies and ideals for running the site - and I’ll see what, if any, pushback I get on the /r/ platform.

    If for any reason I run into the same as you’re experiencing, I want to know sooner than later so I can rid myself of the /r/ forever!!
