thats whack. glad i don’t use windows.

what’s this about?

My dad got me a Linux laptop as a kid (I was 10 I think?), and I am so grateful that he did.

To be fair, I already had a huge passion for computing, and it meant that I would constantly toy around with Linux, breaking things and learning how to fix them.

I have been a Linux user ever since, and I feel have learnt so much about computing because of it.

(I started on Ubuntu 12.04, with the glorious Unity desktop)

💀

looking forward to this release showing up in arch, that’s for sure

tbh i dont think i’ve ever needed w3schools, mdn has always been plenty for me.

dang plasma looking sexy af there

woo hoo!

Do you know why there’s KDE, XFCE and others? Because there’s also a lot of people who dislike GNOME.

If we are getting pedantic here, the above quote is clearly implying that alternatives exist and are actively developed because people dislike GNOME. Your statement does not take in to account the possibility that people just like the other alternatives, and may still like GNOME as well, or feel indifference towards it.

No one is claiming that GNOME has the superior desktop experience. Rather, GNOME has a more opinionated experience, that suits some people, and not others. For some people, it will be superior. For others, they will prefer KDE, XFCE etc.

Umm well akshually 🤓👆: KDE doesn’t exist because people don’t like GNOME lol. GNOME was made because KDE uses QT, which used to be proprietary.

Ha yeah sure. Haven’t used Gnome in over 3 years, daily drive KDE. Just happen to not be 12.

This is honestly really sad. I really don’t get the hostility towards Gnome and it’s devs.

Gnome is certainly quite opinionated, and isn’t to everyone’s tastes, but this doesn’t make it ok for memes like this (a pretty shit meme regardless).

Gnome has done a lot for the linux ecosystem, and Gnome developers don’t owe you anything.

Grow up.

The video also discusses how KDE can learn from Thunderbird’s fundraising strategies. Niccolo Ve makes KDE content, and most videos of his tie into KDE in some way.

I’m number 11.

Sweet.

Just checking over the list of supported files, does it preview just plain .txt files at all?

Display managers usually let you choose the DE when you log in.

I think usually if you use 1 DE per user, it works out fine.

No, Gems have their own versions.
