This is so wrong. Especially the assumption that almost no one would want to have more than 1 DE installed.

Most DEs have their own configuration which don't conflict.

If the maintainer of a distribution has their shit together library incompatibility is no issue. Even on Gentoo you have to ignore everything portage is trying to tell you before you get in trouble.

In the past I even ran two DEs at the same time, sort of. You could start an xfce-panel while using enlightment or good old classic windowmaker.

Later I used Gnome and running my own fork of dwm in a nested Xserver. With wayland this option hasn't gone thanks to Xwayland.

If systemd is correctly set up for it, you get a different seat for every DE, no matter if some seats are hosting the same DE or a different one. I am not sure what will happen if you have several graphical logins with the same user, never tried it.

I recently switched to gnome-web (epiphany) from qutebrowser because it has gotten better in the past months. If a page makes the browser slow, I blame the webpage. In most cases, I can avoid the shitty webpage.

But still, I hope it catches up for the instances I have no choice and open a different browser for a specific webpage.

I wonder what someone has to do to have worse looking font rendering on Linux. I find the font rendering on Windows worse in every regard and inconsistent (size). On Linux I just set hinting to slight and anti-aliasing to greyscale and all my fonts look nice. Same font with same size on Windows (VSCode is the only program I use on both OS) looks slightly blurred; only the fact that my work display has a higher pixels density makes it ok for me.

That's why they are only half the length. ^^

Yes, the minimize button can go away as soon there is an extension that re-adds it for users running gnome classic (a set of gnome shell extensions which includes a classic task bar).

Thx, that was what I needed to understand Fedora atomic a bit better. Cool concept!

Does Fedora atomic use a rolling release model?
