Overall, probably a positive thing as the improvements made here will flow downstream. I’m actually looking forward to seeing the performance of these new Qualcomm chips in laptops.

    break GNOME as “their desktop”

    you mean make it tolerable :)

    We all have our preferences, I personally don’t really care for stock gnome

      I think their concept is just as flawed as “dash to dock”. Desperately trying to “not be Windows” (while mimicking mac lol)…

      You have a huge top bar that is mainly unused space. You have no hitbox at the top right edge, because of the bad GNOME decorations (also in Firefox) and because of that stupid top bar.

      Then having a dock with empty space around it, where you could easily fit clock, quicksettings and menu, why??

      Dash to panel fixes most, just not the bad hitboxes to the top edge. And luckily it is very actively maintained.

      Ubuntu meanwhile keeps that useless top bar and also places a bar at the edge. This is good for regular screens. But it is annoying when tiling in half.

      And they dont fix it, as they still keep the silly top bar.

      And the main issue is their theming, which breaks apps.
