I switched to Fedora KDE. Literally looks better than windows and doesn’t have all the BS. Lightweight and it honestly works well. Aint ever going back.
Well its KDE, that is why it looks good. Gnome in comparison is better than windows ui but KDE is one of the better Desktop managers. DMs are usually separate than the OS but do come preinstalled in a lot of distro flavors
I’m actually a big fan of the Gnome workflow on laptops. When using a mouse i HATE Gnome but when using a trackpad? It has no peers. It’s entirely designed around gestures. three fingers up to switch apps, side to side to switch desktops, up a 2nd time to get the apps page, etc. I do wish it was more customizable like KDE but it’s my go to on a laptop simply because I can’t stand using a trackpad with anything else.
I liked Gnome2, but never got the feeling for the current generation
Especially on a laptop I love tiling window managers, like i3
Not needing the mouse for basic things is really nice

That’s exactly what I use on my own computer. But work owns the other computer and gets to dictate the OS and ll that…

Gnome is just a Mac lookalike for those switching to linux from that walled garden.

This is interesting info I wish I had known about while using Gnome for like 10 years… (Did not migrate from a MacOS environment, so that’s on me)
I haven’t tried 11, but IDK, for me Gnome feels like it’s trying to be futuristic while being a deranged cross between an Ipad and a fisher price toy.
But then again, macos or whatever the fuck they are calling it looks like that, but less futuristic
