    It’s very minimalist and the project ditched the Windows-style approach some years ago. Personally, I’ve grown to love it and other DEs feel bloated now.

    To each their own 🤷‍♂️

      I use KDE in macOS theme, and now it does not at all feel like windows 😄

      KDE can be whatever you want, but requires time to configure

      Gnome is trying to achieve “it just works”

      It just works meaning “use your computer how we think it’s most efficient”

        I have to use macOS at work and I sorely miss the efficiency and simplicity of gnome.

        I’ve spent a lot of time configuring and tweaking various DEs in the last 20 years, but somehow gnome shell nailed it for me.

        Happy to have many options as a Linux user!
