I want to point out that the changes you are talking about, minimize/maximize buttons and docks, are actually big changes to the workflow of a desktop environment. How hard would it be to remove those buttons and the standard dock on windows? Harder than it is with gnome I think. Gnome isn’t windows and it’s used differently from windows. It shouldn’t be expected to accommodate windows’s workflow.

I actually got them from my windows partition. It was very easy. I copied them from C:\Windows\Fonts to the .fonts folder in my home directory.

with microsoft fonts installed I actually found that libreoffice displayed the docx file I wanted to edit better than onlyoffice.

YES

When I first wanted to try Linux out I made a small 50gb partition for it. the logic was that this was the size of just one game and it was an entire operating system, so I wasn’t losing much. As I continued to use Linux I kept expanding that partition to correspond with the priority I gave the OS.

Well that’s stupid 😂

Snapdragon is a type of flower. It’s a lovely name in my opinion.

That’s horrendous

How was the patent approved if it already existed tf.

For me this is Gnome with the pop shell extension. It’s so much better than plain i3 in usability and just as good with tiling. Using i3 for years made me appreciate the value of a proper modern desktop environment.

You get to complain to Nvidia, not Linux developers and maintainers.

xdg-open is one of the most used commands on my system. Video files, movies, pdfs, etc if I want to use the default application to open anything I use it. No need to memorize each application’ commands.

Gnome + pop shell extension. Normal i3 tiling keybinds. All the following bindings include super. w for tabbed layout, f1 for calculator, f2 for Firefox, f3 for nautilus, f4 for settings, f5 for package manager. D for search which I can use like dmenu but much better. Shift+s for screenshot. Shift+q to quit application. I program with in the terminal so I need tiling for keyboard-only use. when I first used i3 I underrated tabbing. It solved nearly all of my problems with tiling.

My problem with Manjaro was that they continually kept their repos behind arch while still depending on the aur and other arch infrastructure. This caused problems like aur packages not being buildable, and software that used the arch debuginfod server being unusable.

You get it. That’s exactly what made me write this MR.

With my code, the lowest brightness setting should be closer to the minimum supported by the screen. There are some limitations with this because some screens become flickery at very low brightness levels. You might be able to circumvent the lower limit by using something other than the gnome settings daemon to set the brightness.

You can react to the MR with an emoji if you have a gnome gitlab account. I’m not sure if there are mechanisms to vote for MRs other than that.

Yep, I’m working through the review. He’s a contributor though not a maintainer.

Are you getting offended from a listicle title?

Isn’t that somewhat accepted like with sequential transmissions pushing forward downshifts and pulling back upshifts
