Playing some Counter-Strike 2 and then a GNOME donation notification pops up 😅

GNOME alone is like 60% of the reason why stock Ubuntu and all of its derivatives suck. It's like a mashup of ChromeOS and MacOS, two of the most god awful UX designs this past decade.

Compiz by itself kicks GNOME out of the water, despite it being a now legacy compositor from 2007.

Most annoyingly, even RPM distros like Fedora offer it as default, despite having a fully supported KDE option right there, along with any other DE that you might want like XFCE, LXQt, Cinnamon, MATE, etc.

I don't completely hate MacOS, it's pretty nice IMO.

GNOME instantly gets replaced by KDE Plasma though. With Cosmic also installed for some fun alpha testing.
