Lack of desktop shortcuts by default: pretty much why I always switch to cinnamon.
That said, it’s not inherently bad, it’s just not inherently good.
I would rather use nothing than gnome
tmux > gnome
Ew, Gnome.
Hey, at least it doesn’t run windows.
Things can always be worse
Oh, you didn’t want to be disoriented by all the apps flying apart in every direction when ever you wanted to use the task bar? Oh you wanted a system tray not hidden behind a menu?
Oh, well you can just use a plug in … just pray we don’t update and break all the plug ins anytime soon.
It puts the Gnome on its skin or else it gets the XFCE again.
Beer snobs by any other name run KDE.
Gnome behaves consistently. I want to love kde and have used it since the 3. Days but kwin seems to hate every build I’ve ever done.
We should dissolve the GNOME and KDE foundations and all switch to deepin and xfce. Then we might get discourse so stupid it actually kills people.
Too complicated, ice those two and stick to iceWM
Cough cough server side decorations in wayland being sabotaged cough cough
Hey I like Gnome :((((((((((((
There are dozens of us
We all carry our baggage
Linux is all about computing how you want. Remember that it is just a meme.
Everyone asking about gnome, but what’s a braixen?
It’s a Pokémon, and in the game, the creatures you don’t intent to use are stored in a PC
Oh no.
That’s … that’s too humanoid.
I’m sorry you were made this way Braixen, the internet is not safe for you.
Yep. It has one of the highest number of r34 results of any pokemon.
That’s impressive. Who got the most of them?
I’d suppose Guardevoir or Vaporeon
Gardy is currently at 24k, Vaporeon at 18k. Lucario got 37k
Honestly I didn’t expect lucario to be so high. Also I forgot lopunny but I guess it won’t come close to lucario
Lucario. Even mentioned on their Wikipedia page:
Patricia Hernandez, in an examination of the furry fandom, stated Lucario was the most popular Pokémon for the subset dedicated to the franchise’s characters.[45] Meanwhile, the Pokémon has also been cited as one of the most frequently utilized in erotic works by the fandom and furry pornography,[46] with a June 2023 study of such content on Rule 34 websites, such as e621, Rule 34.xxx, and Sankaku Channel, noting a significantly higher volume of material compared to characters from most other franchises, and the highest of characters from the Pokémon franchise as a whole.
Don’t make this poor soul search all 1,025 pokemon on there
There’s 1028 now
I was never a fan of counting those from games that haven’t released yet. When we can see their pokedex entries they count.
But they do technically exist even if we don’t have any other info yet. And the r34 community probably doesn’t care either
Missing some 2k 😏
Most of the starters for like the last four generations are basically fursonas. It’s tragic. I’ve been a Pokemon fan since the nineties but I’m losing interest.
What made me lose interest is how dead the games feel. I’m impressed how they made the world more open and somehow made it feel so empty. Towns have barely any personality, and the routes are just designed to wonder around aimlessly in.
Don’t even get me started on the permanent xp share, constant hand holding, and lack of any real puzzles.
The older games still hold up at least. I’ve been playing through Emerald again and it’s been a lot of fun.
There’s also quite a few good ROM hacks out there too.
…PC meaning Pokémon Center, not Personal Computer?
Edit: Apparently not. Wtf
Pokemon X/Y fire type starter. Starts as a Fennekin, becomes a Braixen, then final evo is Delphox, Fire/Psychic type.
Pretty art, but this meme is really getting boring. I think people are just regurgitating “GNOME bad” because they heard it from some tech youtuber instead of actually trying GNOME for themselves. IMHO GNOME is awesome. It’s a bit different, but very comfortable when you get used to it. And definitely reliable.
I often see people using some h4x0r i3wm setup scrolling through workspaces and windows for literal minutes trying to find some app they were using earlier, while on GNOME you can just see everything spatially organised in the activities view. They think they have it “tailored for their needs”, but they end up with an unmanageable config file with bits copy-pasted from the internet that is getting harder to understand over time and keeps breaking. I know it from my own experience too, I got tired of it and came back to GNOME.
But if you wanna go down that route, GNOME is also highly customisable. There’s lots of extensions that let you change every aspect of it. If you know some JavaScript, you can make your own, there’s a decent community and documentation. Things like Niri or Cosmic actually started off as GNOME extensions.
Nah, it’s ok, if you fit exactly into the niche Gnome envisions. Which i don’t.
Also, fuck anything outside Gnome using their software.Customisable isn’t an adjective I’d use for gnome. It might be more hackable but UX customization is broken in Gnome.
I think that’s the perfect choice of distinguishing phrases.
KDE is very customizable (perhaps too much for more casual users) while Gnome is hackable with the extension system - but it will always feel a little more tacked on, be a little less stable, prone to upgrade breakage, etc.
As a corollary to OPs argument, there’s also a reason Niri and Cosmos didn’t stay Gnome extensions.
(But at the end of the day, if the Gnome experience niche works for you, more power to you.)
more power to you
Or as Gnome devs say: you don’t need that power. Use a config file or install extensions or install gnome tweaks to increase that power
Gnome is quite good with dash-to-dock and the system tray plugins, but it does kinda suck both of those need to be plugins.
as somebody who used gnome, its cool but only if its installed on good hardware. my potato pc was so slow under gnome, so i just installed lxqt on it lol
