Mez' So all your absurd claims about Red Hat really comes down to UnityVsShell? That’s the most sad thing I’ve seen on Phoronix ever.
Canonical tried to inject a lot of CLAed modules into the stack, Red Hat killed it of by pouring tons of resources into non-CLAed modules. Canonical lost in a fair battle of merits. That’s all.
Mark Shuttleworth took it like a man. There’s nothing wrong in accepting defeat by a better opponent.

Losing graciously is not easy. Mark actually did it many times. Upstart was cancelled the minute the CLA scam was exposed. Same with Unity.
Don’t be a sore loser, be Mark.

Also, I don't care about CLAs and these things.

Dual pane is such a joy to use when needed. Beats snapping almost every time. Very convenient, which is why it's been stripped down from Nautilus (obviously, it wouldn't be ok to offer convenient and easy ways).
Then the disk usage bar is very handy to have an instantaneous visual cue of your disks situation.
Finally, being able to go up one level with an easy button is just a luxury that's also been stripped down from Nautilus.
There's just one thing I'm missing from Nautilus and it's the visual progress pie with the transfer list when transferring files (a progress bar would be just as alright though).
Nautilus is usable though. Just not as comfortably.Last edited by Mez'; 14 January 2021, 05:35 AM.

It's not like many users have ever cared about CLAs, it's just a nice to have (that shouldn't get in the way of convenience and usability), so we can safely disregard your opinion as well.

I am not talking about performance, but usability. Saying that Apple UX is a joke, mean you have never used a Mac ( yes Mac hardware + macOS ) for more than 2 minutes.

Mez' You are right. My opinion on CLA doesn’t matter. What matters is the observable facts. Reality is that Canonical never wanted to create (and maintain) their own stack. They wanted to inject their CLA modules into the linux stack. That failed and Canonical walked away from the maintenance burden on Unity and other CLA components.
Then there’s people like you who took the bait on Unity, Upstart and other CLA modules. Still pretending Unity was about “design excellence in the cloud” or whatever. Get over it. You got played.
Canonical? They are back on GNOME. Doing their part of development and maintenance.
