To start the new year, here's a super innovative kind of video, where I rank every #Linux desktop environment I tried into 5 different categories denoting how much I would be susceptible to use them.
Ok, FINE, it's a tier list.
But don't worry, it's not the "look at tier maker for 20 minutes" kind of tier list, there's some actual stuff to look at:
@thelinuxEXP
I always wait for the @thelinuxexperiment upload of your videos; it might not make a bit dent in our overlord's algorithm machine, but I do my best!
If Elon Musk can destroy Twitter, what would it take for YouTube and other Google products to go belly up? 
@elementary Sorry :/ Thatโs not to say Pantheon is bad or anything, but as per OS 6.1, most of the advantages Pantheon had over GNOME, IMO, have been caught up to or surpassed.
That said, itโs not impossible that using OS 7 for the review will sway me back ๐ Iโm a sucker for some minimalismโฆ
@thelinuxEXP great video, I love Pop_OS' Gnome implementation, I run it on my daily driver and I tried using Plasma on the Steam Deck, I ended up hating my experience there so badly that I'd swap Plasma immediately if I could.
KDE feels way bugger/unstable on the Deck and nowhere as polished as Gnome, not sure if it's a Deck issue or a KDE issue though
@thelinuxEXP Literally 2 hours after I put my tier list video on Odysee?!
Man, I should have edited my video a lot faster, or a lot slower.
Also, I need to get my thumbnail game better, yours look much better than mine.
@sotiry The look of budgie can be replicated in GNOME in minutes, though, thatโs not really a big reason for it to gain points in that ranking ;)
As per XFCE, I think it will always have fans and users, because it basically does something no one else is doing, which is being full featured and low on resources. Well, MATE is also doing that, but XFCE has been around for longer
@thelinuxEXP Just to comment on your coverage of Budgie as one of the developers: we haven't been sitting idle since Josh left Solus, there's actually been a lot of activity. We put out five releases last yearโone minor and four patchโand have a big new release coming before the end of January. I'd suggest checking out the blog at https://blog.buddiesofbudgie.org, especially the year in review that was posted on the 1st.
Also, Ubuntu Budgie is pretty different from the stock experience :)
@serebit @thelinuxEXP So it's a lose-lose situation. Either it gets shown with UB, which isn't representative, or there is enough hoops that one has to jump through that is just reinforces the point.
The fundamental point of information not being accurate isn't going to be changed by whether or not UB is shown, rather the indication of no activity is not accurate given the blog posts.
@JoshStrobl @serebit To be fair, I didnโt say nothing happened, rather that nothing major seems to have been added while work is ongoing on the new version. Then again, I had missed the blog posts and should have checked beforehand.
As per UB, it was footage I had, and reused, but it will be easier to show a ยซ pure ยป budgie version when the official Fedora spin is out!
