GNOME OS Is Taking Shape But Its To Serve For Testing The Desktop

hahahaha Canonical, that's what you get for trying to help a cancerous company, hope this serves you as a lesson, you shouldn't have dropped unity for gnome 3

Again, another user can't barge into KDE threads to bend them into flamewars, but you totally can do the same in GNOME threads because... ?

He and his clan did, so I am. :l
Enough of trying to tell him to stop.

Enough of tildearrow. Here’s some great performance work on some sorting in GTK. >1000x increase in synthetic benchmarks.

Sure, yeah, good.


Does Average Joe care about this, or does he care more about having a usable thing?

But you shouldn't worry, there are people with very limited brains, it is more satisfying to ignore than to go down to their level.

Except nobody does, and they rack up likes to no end.
The more they get, the weaker the Other Desktops are and the less Freedom we have.

Everybody else in the Linux community moved on from DE flamewars 20 years ago.. Get over it mate.. Even the KDE/Gnome developers aren't flaming each other..

That... was the case...

...only until now when 144Hz decided starting Phoronix War I was a good idea.
This is his thread anyway... .-.

Not to support The Crusade, but at least they fixed GNOME 3 to some degree in their distro. Stock GNOME is unusable.

Actually, even for gaming Gnome performance improved massively . In earlier Gnome 3 releases, games ran a LOT slower on Gnome than Windows or KDE (with compositing turned off, which was a shortcut).

However, as of late, I found games on Gnome are as fast, and Gnome is definitely in a state it's now competitive against Windows. It will be even more interesting to see what happens with Wayland (which may potentially have even better performance long term).

No idea why the hate for Canonical either.. They've made some fairly large contributions to Linux (and had one of the first mainstream distro's which were usable for a wide variety of audiences).

Gnome? KDE? I'm trying to switch from XFCE to Sway...

Because Canonical's open source projects are always set up one sided and without community involvement, but Canonical tries to use Ubuntu's dominance to push them everywhere.

e.g. snap.

You should definitely use what you are most comfortable with. Compared to 20 years ago, the DE's in Linux are actually in a fairly good state, because so much has been standardized now. Back then, they didn't even share the same sound system..
