Gnome looks get renewed

huge title bar and back butt button on the left. Definitely designed for touch.

Where is the dark theme?

Where is the dark meme?

> Gnome researchers
Archaeologists?

Yeah a new look will surely fix all the issues with this dogshit.
Also the new folder icons are terrible.

it could look amazing and i still wouldn't use it because it's bloated, slow running garbage

>unironic single-threaded javascript desktop

I've had to install a DE for normie office manager/accounting type people to get on their servers a few times and the only one accepted without complaint is XFCE. Gnome3 would result in a shitstorm. They need to stop taking the COC and start taking C++ tutorials.

GNOME3 looks and runs like absolute shit.

And because Gnome devs are narcissistic cunts who don't give a shit what users want.
Oh, you want Gnome to have customisability? Fuck you, you shouldn't want that. We know better.

Good luck with that because the new theme looks just as shitty.

Holy shit! Yet another change that nobody asked for!

guess they're talking about numix

We need to choose something else than Gnome so this fuckers change it

>Gnome team realizes people use third party themes
Whelp, I guess that means theme support will be removed completely soon

numix or bust
also they should fix the fucking file picker and add thumbnails first
fucking gnome niggers

Openbox is the best.

>Gnome researchers
lol
It was the developers official target until they realized that nobody on PC would upgrade to touchscreens

install MATE

This was supposed to be gnome 3

Sorry dude, you're in the minority. I don't like GNOME's interface either, but what you want is fucking awful

Honestly the Software isntaller/store is one of Gnome's biggest letdowns, it needs a fundamental redesign.

Drinking in my car, police in sight in distance.
What do?

>menu on the right
smdh

They can make it look like whatever the fuck knockoff Mac ui they want but it still runs like bloat trash so meh

Go to bed gnome

Hope you have someone to come pick up your car bro.

They're going to try and remove custom themes, aren't they

im a gnome dev; we dont catre what people who dont run gnome think

You know what I like? An interface that delays the appearance of menus so I can be impressed by its rendering

its fine if the menu is in reverse order, fitts law still works

that's fucking awful. I bet you never used window managers? Gnome works just like one with an app and file finder if you set it up that way, and has dynamic workspaces so I can get shit out of the way for a bit without having a lot of windows cluttered. It's where the ""desktop"" efficiency is at right now. The desktop metaphor on a computer which is already on top of a desktop is just for kids, grow up. Regardless, Gnome still has configs to enable that, you can use "extensions" if you are that retarded, which weight about 50kb, is literally a config file.

t. someone who never worked in an office before

Already did, my man

install what m8?

lipstick on a pig desu

>Many users of Gnome took 3rd party looks instead of Adwaita which was made by the genuine Gnome team.
How do they know that? This is the only part I care about.

What i like from gnome
> aesthetics
> workflow
> default apps (since they are minimal and don't use them much)
> menu bar on top of apps

dont like
> resource usage
> no global menu because fuck you
> no desktop icons because fuck you (never used those)
> no background application icons because fuck you

The global menu extension that I used kept breaking after every update, until an update finally broke it for good and the developer's pull requests to re-enable support were not approved.

With application background icons the extension also breaks frequently, but it isn't even reliable, there are some apps that don't even show up at all like discord. Like wtf is an average user supposed to do to close an application.

I like where the desktop is heading though and think it is the best de. But I cant wrap around my head how they make retarded choices like those ones.

No one could actually be this dumb could they

fuck gnome. I just want it to go away

t. wagecuck with a shit job
lol even then you don't benefit from having a ""traditional"" desktop retard, you don't have space and everything is on top of each other is a fucming clusterfuck

>Gnome researchers

>no idea what Gnome is

don't worry, it isn't anything relevant

severe autism detected

Wow make it look even more like old apple os. I will hate gnome even more. I do have to thank gnome though. If it wasnt for how absolutely shit it is I never would have picked up i3. Thanks for bieng such shit gnome! Never stop!

This

great! Gnome is awesome

what is dash2panel

retard can't even search for extensions,
comes here to complain like a little bitch

Because it has massive buttons and title bars that look like they're suited better for fingers than they are for mice. Keyboard controls are irrelevant.

> People unironically use gnome
What the fuck

>mikrobitti
:D

Way too bright

first time i've laughed at one of these 'holding face to thigh' pics

>Gnome looks get renewed
Thank god! Another redesign of a linux DE is just what we needed.

it's a fine balance between 'useful' and 'looks cool to onlookers'
jk, menus should appear the instant they can be. windows does this shit, too, fading in whole windows which have already loaded, you can turn them off, though
same with android, though you can set the animation scale to 0x there, too

Aren't these guys wanting to nuke custom theme support from GTK3, I guess they will delude themselves into thinking this is ok once they release this new default theme.

Literally the Windows 10 of free software.

eyy, is transparency that hard on linux, i've seen some kdefags with blurred transparent windows but these tasteless faggots use 30px radius or something

looks an awful lot like CDE

this

ugly as fuck

ITT: People confusing GNOME and GTK.

Dash to panel is fucking garbage and has no future.
t. i implemented a feature for it once.

I love Gnome. i dont even have a fast machine and it seems quick and responsive to me. Maybe you guys are just butthurt fagits.

Who is responsible for saying "no" to that and creating current shit instead?

GTK means Gnome Tool Kit.

2019 will be the year of the Budgie desktop.
we'll be saved.

No it doesn't...

*gnome wayland

>ayylien language

How about they give people more options instead of hiding basic shit like changing specific fonts on text files or make it so animations are not so fucking sluggish

Seriously a fucking theme ain't gonna fix it

A cucked corporatized bloated DE that nobody seems to be able to stand up to.

This is is peak desktop performance. You might not like it, but this is what it looks like.

>imagine having the fucking title of “Gnome Researcher”

You literally have the option. It takes maybe five minutes.
Go to software, extensions, and install the following:
>Dash to panel
>Arc Menu
Then use gnome-tweaks to change some shit around (disable the hot corners, make it so that the clock is on the right of the tray icons, add a Windows 10-like show desktop button)
Then it'll work literally just like Windows 10.
Pic related is the end result.

Why the fuck are Linux devs constantly trying to reinvent the wheel?

looks like kde 5

you also dont care about people who do run gnome

I run gnome and it's great. Easily the best desktop I've used. 9/10 chance my desktop is better than yours shrug emoji

>I run gnome and it's great
yikes
and no, I use i3-wm fully customized to my needs.

>be gonme
>ignore their user base
>go full retard design that no one asked for
>people leave
lets not all pretend that this is somehow a correction for their mistakes, they will never learn and if something is going to change its just because someone bought them and they want it more like they have it on mind rather than a group of trannis.

tell me when they fix their overhead and it doesn't make mpv micro stutter in wayland

not sure if anything could actually make me use gnome
based

My gnome experience is very smooth, I don't get it. You guys running toasters?

>Gnome researchers
how many stinkies did he get accept for this

Gtk was overtaken years ago. Do i need to remind you that gimp switched to gtk3 years after it was introduced while every change in the toolkit was made for gnome's sake?

For a DE that's got literally no functionality, how the fuck is it so bloated and needs a supercomputer to run?
