What is different? I think GNOME diverged a bit more, by removing window buttons, desktop icons, the dock etc. And they dont use blur and transparency at all.
But with dash to dock, blur my shell and some decoration manipulation changer it is very similar.
Not that I dont think this makes sense (I dont, as having a dock but also a top panel wastes space) but it is not really a unique workflow
Well the way the workspaces and the overview work is completely different which means that workflow is night and day different. Not to mention how the differences in how floating windows work, what role the top panel plays and things like that.
They might look similar just like how KDE ‘looks’ similar to windows but that is only true at the surface level. The way the desktops behave and hence the workflow is very different in each case
But there’s 3 actions right ? is there a way to minimize and close too ? triple click ? that sounds so counter functional on paper. I guess I’d have to try it
You wont believe me but minimize is not a thing as there is no panel or dock. You open stuff, move it somewhere else and you will never use a dock as a container, just as a quicklauncher.
I think that is fair, but it for sure forces many people to adapt their workflows.
My father uses a mac and it is plenty different. Maybe the design philosophy of MacOS and GNOME are similar but the implementation is very different.

Okay that may be true. GNOME is very usable (with extensions), macos is hell
Removing window buttons ? the trio of buttons for controlling window size ? or is this something else
Yep. And removing the maximize button doesnt even make sense, apart from “looking better”. Not everyone can easily double click I guess
but what. This is completely dumb. How do you do those actions then ?
Double click somewhere on the oversized titlebar

There is a close button, thats it.
