Gnome : a new website has landed
Gnome : a new website has landed
I postet a screenshots from https://manjaro.org/products website where they have a stock photo of a macbook besides the download button for the desktop .iso
Know theres another macbook stockphoto at gnomes website.
So either there are no other laptops produced that fit the highly enterpr1se entrepreneur busine5s investment1t!1! life style of the regular linux users who visit these websites, or manjaro and gnome are all investing in asahi linux secretly.
I understand that the iphone became a synonym for "mobile phone" especially when it comes to graphics. The unique look of them, especially when they still had their home button, makes it very easy to draw one on a computer e.g.
And macbooks are widely used by professionals of all disciplines, so yes, macbooks are associated with profession.
All fine, but why on a Linux-Distro website, like manjaro ?! Why on Gnome? Apples not really invested in getting open source software running on their systems, so where come the probs from and what for?
Right on time when I decided to give it a serious spin. Nice!
Btw, does anyone know how to remap the super key to activate apps menu (official extension) instead of the default workspace menu? That's one part of GNOME I did not find nice.
UPD. I have found an extension that allows me to attribute any command to the Super key; how do I use a command to call an extension (in this case, the apps menu)?
Why not try doing things the gnome way once. Super key one for overview, and twice for app list.
Using Gnome needs that you try a different workflow. Use the Windows way if you're afraid (by adding a panel and a menu), but once you've settled, try to understand why it was designed that way and how to use it properly. For the first months, I was using a dock / panel, but since years I use only caffeine (to keep the screen awake when I need) and workspace indicator (because Debian is still at Gnome 43 and quick workspace switch was introduced in Gnome 45). Gnome is by FAR the desktop where I'm the most productive and I've tried them all over the years.
I don't currently see how going into a dockmode and then the app drawer is more productive than to have a small menu popping up with all I need at the push of a button. I also need to move between active windows quite a lot, which is why I also need my open apps in the top bar (which, luckily, is way less problematic to setup, there is an extension for that exactly)
I guess it might be a matter of personal preference, but this is the key issue I have with Gnome, the rest is indeed good. The top bar, while inconvenient at first, does have clear benefits and I see how it might be helpful; the design language of the apps is something I adore, everything is tailored to be minimalistic, but powerful.
But this exact part is not in my taste at all, and I do not appreciate being forced into a design choice that only causes me headaches.
I'd like for the Super key to open apps menu, and then something like Shift+Super opening the dock/app drawer, and I'll be golden.
