  • I started using Fedora / GNOME as my daily driver on my laptop for a few months and can see where this change may be coming from. I really like how clean GNOME is and it works really well with smaller single screens (laptop) and multi-touch input /w gestures... but the reason I haven't switched my desktop over is because I can't see how that same design philosophy translates to a desktop environment with just a mouse and keyboard.

    Trying to figure out how to manage background applications like chat programs, soft-phones, and even email seems to be an uphill battle with GNOME.

    • I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. My Linux experience might be limited, but I installed Ubuntu recently and tried sticking with GNOME and I just couldn't wrap my head around how I was supposed to get anything done without going straight for the terminal. At that point, I might as well not use the desktop environment at all.
