@mischievoustomato @Tadano @MK2boogaloo @histoire gnome is the best. I have tried so many desktops and window managers and all the other ones are just garbage. Plasma gets close but not really.

  @silas @mischievoustomato @Tadano @histoire Gnome is shit, man. It lags and brings out the worst in Linux. I don't want the bloatness of Windows within my system.

  @silas @mischievoustomato @MK2boogaloo @histoire Are you a furry and/or have RedHat certs for system administration? The only person I know IRL who says GNOME has great defaults satisfies both these conditions.

  @MK2boogaloo @Tadano @histoire @mischievoustomato never seen gnome lag ever. Even when I still had a gtx 1060 installed lol what the fuck. And what do you even mean bloated? Plasma is way more bloated with stupid shit.

  @silas @Tadano @histoire @mischievoustomato I use it on an old laptop with 4GB of RAM and i3 CPU on it. Cinnamon still works to this day but Gnome is unusable.

  @silas @Tadano @histoire @mischievoustomato at least it's usable at low spec PC instead of Gnome. I use XFCE nowadays on a better PC and it's truly a blessing.

  @MK2boogaloo @Tadano @histoire @mischievoustomato lol that's shitty. Literally cinnamon is a gnome fork. Cinnamon and KDE Plasma is for closeted windows addicts.

  @MK2boogaloo @Tadano @histoire @mischievoustomato OK. What lightweight desktop is there that has the same workflow as gnome plus with tiling?

  @silas @Tadano @histoire @mischievoustomato fucking workflow, everyone said this but never explains what that is and why do they need it so much. It's not like you lose access to stuff from Gnome when you use XFCE.

  @silas @Tadano @histoire @mischievoustomato just switch the workspace by using keyboard shortcut? How hard is it to to that? If you're really complaining about the apps being ugly then you're not really productive. Most productive people I know use Microsoft Word without any addons or shit like that.

  @MK2boogaloo @Tadano @histoire @mischievoustomato no but xfce doesn't handle multiple workspaces nearly as nice aa gnome does. Because gnome 40 series is actually designed around multiple workspaces. And also the xfce and kde apps just all look Really Ugly.

  @MK2boogaloo @Tadano @histoire @mischievoustomato I like Gnome because I want to have multiple workspaces set up. Gnome does that way better than anything else. I like the app grid and being able to drag and launch things in different workspaces. I like that you use the super key for loads of things. To start an app to switch to another to run a command to do maths. You press super and there you go.
  Once you embrace gnome 40 series it's like.. Very different from Pretty much every other desktop

  @MK2boogaloo @Tadano @histoire @mischievoustomato that's why I settled for Gnome with Forge. Which gives makes gnome tile it's windows.
  If I used a tiling manager I would have to see how to configure one to have the dash and the app grid work like it does on gnome. The ability to drag launch an app on whatever workspace you want is a thing I use often.

  @MK2boogaloo @Tadano @histoire @mischievoustomato yea right. Because learning how to set up a window manager is not a waste of time at all. Compare to just using gnome with a tiling manager extension.

  @silas @Tadano @histoire @mischievoustomato simply using stock XFCE is definitely better at being efficient rather than using Gnome.

  @silas @Tadano @histoire @mischievoustomato I click on a program in my XFCE desktop, it loads instantly. I don't know any system which requires you to do stuff like that, even if it exists then why does it matter? It's being helpful.

  @MK2boogaloo @Tadano @histoire @mischievoustomato clicking on it twice tells the compositor which workspace to put the program on?

  @MK2boogaloo @Tadano @histoire @mischievoustomato well. After a reboot. I want to structure my workspaces again. Put all the messaging things on one screen Firefox on its screen. And then like a file manager or whatever on another. Gnome does that basically in a single step.
