The new GNOME Control Center display has rolled out! It's looking pretty nice and makes more effective use of the screen real estate.

Lets face it, more people are familiar with explorer and its paradigm, but that's due to its nature as a consumer oriented interface. Anybody needing more advanced capability will opt for a split screen as soon as they actually try one.

Originally posted by duby229 View PostThat's probably also true to some degree, but if you've got more than a single person working, those 2 people are going to need some file management. And when you've got hundreds or thousands of people working together, then what you just described is basically a pipe dream.

As for the desktop, I'm glad that we have many desktops, and we're not forced to use the pile of half-chew vomit that is Gnome 3, it managed something not many graphical environments have ever even gotten close to, it is worse than Finder on MacOS.

Advanced users use either keyboard shortcuts (ctrl-c ctrl-v) or for large amounts of files they rightclick to open file transfer programs (this on windows mostly)
