Oh noes! Design spec?!? :( STANDARDS AND ETHICS?!?! No! I Want you to install my halfass, broken solution instead of waiting for a proper solution to come along! I'm such a special boy and know coding better than you! HOW DARE YOU HAVE PLANS!! /s

Like some of you are buffoons and need to go use something like Plasma instead. I love Plasma, not pushing that down, it's just that if you don't know the modus operandi of GNOME in 2024 already, you might as well give up trying.

At the very least give up complaining. You wouldn't have Wayland if it weren't for WONTFIX, ya daft cunts.

Yeah it’s not for me but its goal is to be the polished and distinctive option. Plasma is the “sure you can try” choice. And I love having enough rope to hang myself, but some people don’t

I can't tell if you are praising KDE or gnome. They both have different goals.

[–] [email protected] -3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Both are great projects really, and big projects at that - big stacks, lots of moving parts.

Whereas GNOME tries to be more uniform, Plasma tries to be more bespoke.

I don't care which one you use, really. I just love GNOME design principles and it's desktop paradigm.

Is GNOME a perfect project? No. But when these troglodytes crawl out of their discord servers, I just can't help but be infuriated by their pure malice and ignorance.

So fuck em. I'm done with this thread.

You have a nice day now, y'hear?

LOL, we still don't have Wayland because the daft cunts at Gnome still haven't heard of 4k displays and setting scaling factors for Xwayland.....you know.....problems Plasma never had in the first place.

All Gnome does is propose half baked measures they don't take any action on because the fully formed cohesive solution doesn't spontaneously magic itself into existence, then gaslight the users. Fuck Gnome.
