  • What always irritated me about Gnome was that when Mutter crashed, I lost anything I was working on. When Plasma crashes, it’ll bring my applications back. The GC bug Gnome had for years was what pushed me to KDE because I couldn’t trust it to not nuke whatever I was working on. Never looked back.

    Well, that and the Gnome devs thinking they know how everyone needs to use their DE. That was fucking irritating, especially when they’d break extensions with nary a care.







  • I can’t imagine going back to having to manage my installations and software updates manually. I now have someone that downloads, tests and packages every new version with my operating system, and OS upgrades are likely to have been rolled out over a few channels until when it hits stable, it’s probably known to work well (in non-cutting edge distros).

    I wouldn’t want to go back to having to keep track of when a package updates and download it from some site that may or may not be the authors, and then hope to hell Microsoft actually does something approaching quality control on their janky, security-through-obscurity OS before releasing an update that proceeds to brick my machine.
