Edit: I forgot to add context: Emmanuele Bassi (@ebassi) (pejoratively called here ebussy) is one of GNOME developers, known for removing "unnecessary" features.
If you think basic features are necessary you are a toxic and unserious person who doesn't understand professional interfaces. /s
Another day of GNOME developers doing everything they can to convince me I made the right choice sticking with Plasma
So he is the responsible!
I have no clue what any of this means, but I guess I'm not the intended audience
Gnome devs judge release success by the amount of features they managed to remove since last release and make it easier to maintain.
Eventually it'll be one button in the middle of the screen that turns it on and off.
haha ok this becomes funny in this new light
And would you consider he's actively harming gnome development ?
IDK, I've found Gnome unusable for a long time. I tried to make up for it with extensions for a while, but every release would unapologetically break something I found essential and the extension devs would give up trying to keep them going.
I understand that eventually they got better about dropping breaking changes without warning, because extension devs were leaving in droves, but at that point KDE got good again with Plasma, and I've never looked back.
Gnome has their vision to be a completely hands off, dumbed-down, unbreakable DE for the lowest common denominator. I guess judged by that light, it's a success. It's the default in a lot of distros because it's low maintenance for packaging and support. Frankly, I think it's a major reason for the slow speed of Linux desktop uptake, but what do I know.
I mean, I tried KDE+Wayland on an Nvidia GPU and it's still not properly working. It should work soon, but it worked okay on gnome for like a year now
Thanks for sharing your views ! I am taking an interest in Linux again because of many factors and I'd like to minimize the chances of having to try out many things things before settling on a distro that works for me. I generally don't want to tinker, as long as the tool disappears and does its job well. So far I was under the impression that was the case with Gnome (my last experience dates back to Fedora 19 and Gnome whatever).
I’ve found kde to be pretty straight forward, it’s also the most similar to windows so you get a general feel for where everything should be. Also for me, plasma just works, but if you are unsure and using fedora you can try a love usb with each desktop before installing
Why is 4chan so weird
Yeah good question. I don't get why it's reposted, basically ever
Because it's weird
Not in a good way
Aye, but what if I don't want good things
What's an ebussy?
Sorry, I forgot to add post body to this crosspoint. See edit.
Thank you. I thought it was an egirl equivalent for boy pussy... It does make a lot more sense now
You weren't alone with that thought
We got the dank Linux syndrome.
Instead of brain there's a tux doing shitposts.
It's terminal
Shut up and take my upvote
Get gnomed, idiot
