And Gnome is slow, with a completely limited UI that barely gives you anything of utility. The file selector is so bad (try selecting a file with the keyboard) and slow it's not even funny, it even has concurrency issues if you select things too fast!?, in Gnome applications, buttons keep changing places for no reasons, 30y olds shorcuts stop working an update to the next (like, press enter to validate), they refuse fractional scaling for... I don't know actually, etc, etx. I am sorry for the well intentioned people working on Gnome. But it's just a dumpster fire at this point. And the tone in the Gnome issue tracker is insufferable. Everybody that suggest something or tries to help is a moron from their point of view. I cannot help but think the people working on Gnome live in a weird bubble. |

Huh? I'm using Gnome instead of MacOS because I can choose the size of the text and the other UI elements. On MacOS, the only choices that aren't blurry are 100% scaling and 200% scaling, but Gnome lets me set the scaling to an arbitrary value without blurriness. (I had to fuss with Emacs and my web browser to get them to be non-blurry when the scale factor is something other than 100%.)
Are there stupid design decisions in Gnome? Yes, but I've found Gnome to be usable with a little research (i.e., on how to set keyboard shortcuts for switching between apps instead of the "activities view").
