With the introduction of Gnome Shell in 2011, the Gnome developers decided desktop icons were tacky and got rid of them. There are some extensions to bring them back, but the Gnome developers are just and righteous in their arbitrary design tyranny.

The dictatorship of the GNOME Human Interface Guidelines (HIG) has given us the most beautiful desktop environment but also the most controversial.

It's an amazing place, the scale is barely comprehensible in person.

The desktop of my main ThinkPad. The wifi information is redacted.

Arch Linux w/ sway, swaybg, and waybar. Gruvbox lagtrain as background, with a gruvbox theme applied to everything.

oh, that's fine, i've watched an international student stream his anime titty background to tenured faculty while pulling up slides for science research before. my linux having ass is just more shocked at the usage of a desktop with shortcuts on it. just feels too cluttered for me now.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I'm just old and used to shortcuts on windows lol

same lol altho i gotta say the top bar is wild to me

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago

well, what i really want to be using is a keyboard tiling wm like xmonad or qtile, but for reasons X doesn't support my specific graphics card, and it also doesn't play nice with any wayland WM based off of wlroots, so for my two monitor setup, my favorite option is KDE wayland.

which is to say, i like having a top bar like xmobar that is more like a thinner strip of system info and workspaces a la macos default, but given that i can't have it, i've still elected to shove my windows bar to the top

Blurred out private notes (mostly just appointments, todo lists, doctor names/numbers, etc.)

Yeah, I live like that. I never just leave it sitting with a bare desktop so I never change my background image these days.

2 years and 50+ different distributions have culminated in a Bazzite Ublue install that I am neither over excited nor overly annoyed about. I will never go back to GNOME though.

I switch my desktop wallpaper every couple of months/weeks.

I catalogue what shows I watch and what games I play etc.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (3 children)

Nobara OS. Already clean lea-smug

The taskbar is usually hidden too so it's literally just an animated wallpaper

The game icon is so that Mrs. ButtBidet can find her game without messing around with Steam and Linux.
