I’ve always loved Gnome, even when it looked like Mate. I do feel like customization isn’t perfect but I love the clean layout, snappy behavior and multi-desktop implementation. I worry that it won’t be given the same love KDE gets, but I know the Gnome team works hard to make a solid DE. I might switch back to it this week. I’ve been using Labwc for awhile, but I do miss just using my desktop rather than editing the config files to get close to the same experience.

The nice thing about Linux is that you don’t have to use these niche distros. Windows users either had to deal or learn computer OS procedures to move on. I’m sure Shadowfetch will disappear into the ether soon enough.

Had this experience today. It was incredibly frustrating. Had to meme about it since I can’t get approval for my fix until tomorrow at 9am in another meeting.
