  • There are some really nice designs here. I really hope that KDE finally gets to pay attention to this. I love simplification of it.

    One thing I don’t like here is the login screen. There is too much stuff on it. I think gnome’s login screen, as it is now, is fantastic.

    And one more thing, proposal for mindset change: not everything has to be a widget. Some things (like shell) could have layouts: layout as current plasma/windows, layout as gnome, layout as Mac, layout as Win8… If things get well thought out, you can integrate this and switch layouts and not di*k around with widgets. Less moving parts, less problems.









  • Why would they put effort into changing something which works for them with the risk of breaking things?

    The sentiment is similar to climate change deniers. Why would we stop with fossil fuels when they work, people have jobs, etc. And why would we risk breaking the power grid?

    And as long as that works for them, they won’t actively change anything.

    Wayland on gnome and Ubuntu is already the default. It seems to me you have to actively change the default to x.

    It would be interesting to see in which scenario x is better than wayland. The only reason I can think of is an (old) Nvidia card. With new Nvidia’s I guess the statement would otherwise be ‘i will not use it until they fix Wayland’
