Nick @ The Linux ExperimentJan 3, 2023

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 find vanilla Gnome (out-of-the-box) quite shocking. without a good number of extensions it is unusable for me (yes, I do think forcing terminal upon people from the start is a huge turn-off). is that what's intended? for people to start searching the web how to enable this and that? if I was a novice I would just erase that disk after 10minutes.

@thelinuxEXP I do understand that there are people fond of vanilla Gnome workflow. but new #linux users (coming from Windows or mac) most probably will be looking for seamless adoption of new OS. arguably,this is not it. i'm not bashing Gnome here(i can make it work for me),but out-of-the-box it is not a good user experience. year of linux? 🤦🏼‍♂️
