Just got a steam deck and immediately checked out the desktop mode, and I was somewhat surprised to see KDE and pacman as opposed to GNOME and apt, I have nothing against the former though a strong preference for the latter, anyone know why Volvo went in this direction?
I see you’re upset people don’t like gnome.
I don’t care what people like, I don’t like people shitting on open source projects and dividing the community.
Right.
You don’t like that people don’t like gnome. You care about what they like.
I, personally, think when we love something we want it to be the best it can be. Gnome devs seem to just be red hat employees who don’t actually care about making a good DE, just doing the easiest work while [WONTFIX]ing anything that takes actual effort.
You don’t even talk with gnome devs. You talk with red hat. They’re employees first for a company owned by IBM.
But Gnome is a great DE, I’ve used it as a daily driver for personal and at work for many years. I can’t say I have any major complaints. What’s so terrible about Gnome?
Do you use gnome tweak tools?
Because if I do, then that proves Gnome is terrible and all the devs should drive off a cliff?
Splitting the community? Who cares, it doesn’t matter anyways.
I care, and so do many others, it happens to some with empathy when they grow out of their preteen years.
If we divided Gnome right out of the open source community, we wouldn’t have lost much.
It’d be a massive loss. The best DE would be gone.
Naw, Cinnamon will still be here.
Lmao
If we lost the open source community will have gained.
