Examples could be things like specific configuration defaults or general decision-making in leadership.

What would you change?

    I don’t get this. It is a common statement on lemmy especially among the new users. I have been daily-driving linux for many many years, and every install of a new distro gets 3 or 4 DEs added to play around with and find the ‘flavour of the year’ for myself.

    I don’t recall this ever being a real problem. Ever.

      Been using Linux for 25 years, and I remember some of this from init script years, but it’s been a long, long time since it’s been an issue in any half-way decent distro.

        Roughly the same here. And yeah this hasn’t been a problem since the very first years. And even then it was just some config tweaks.

          I started with Conectiva in the nineties. Back on Gnome 1, fvwm, etc. Never experienced that. The opposite, it was always possible to run programs from one toolkit in another. The only issue was the aesthetic clash.
