I recently tested out Gnome after shunning it for years and I was very impressed. It's not as customizable as KDE but for laptops, their workflow is bretty great.

The upcoming 3.34 release had a lot of performance focus with many patches added.

I kinda have a love/hate relationship with gnome with the wish of more customation while accepting it has a nice user interface. Gtk3 applications have a unique "polished" look to them. Too bad gnome doesn't give a shit about making them look nice on plasma.

And gnome's default file manager and text editor is shit compared to plasma's.

What problems do you have with GTK applications on plasma?

Clear Linux + Gnome =

based

Look at this corporation shill

Performance is better than in 3.32
t. Fedora 31

And gnome by far is the worst piece of shit ever since they copied the Mac style while failing at it.

Half the shit I had with gnome 2 is gone and it's buggy as fuck. It's an abomination and gnome devs can seriously suck a dick made of horse shit.

Try this in wayland
>Move your mouse in circle
>Super+a, make sure you're in all application tab, not favorites
Is the mouse still lagging like in 3.32? In X it was smooth, but it lags on wayland.

I'm running wayland, no lag.
t. Fedora 31

I try to open up Company of Heroes from Steam, it crashes and forces me out of the session.
I try to open up World of Warships in Lutris just to find that my mouse does not work.
In the meantime I'm running X.Org and no problem at all.
t. Fedora 30

I only stream my games from a Windows 10 virtual machine
t. Fedora 31

I play CoH on Wayland under ClearLinux from flatpak steam, no problems whatsoever
The only issue comes from whatever steamplay version I use, 3.7.8 is stable but 4.11.3 would crash sometimes when exiting the game

Fedora is a shit for games

year of linux desktop for real this time trust me guys

Cope arch or gentoo user

Games are for kids.

Linux is for neckbeards.

>By avoiding OpenGL and the graphics driver we also reduce CPU usage.
Despite reimplementing the logic on the CPU, it still takes less CPU
time than going through GL did.
>This new approach also dramatically reduces the number of picking paint
cycles required for cursor movement since the pickability of the entire
screen is calculated and cached. The cache is only invalidated when the
screen contents change so for typical desktop usage where the screen is
mostly idle, cursor movement doesn't incur anywhere near as many paint
cycles as it used to.

I don't remember the last time when I was excited for such thing.

>more bloated than plasma with not even a 10% of the features
I'll pass.

Does gnome STILL have it's memory leak?

gnome is garbage

If you talk about the garbage collection memory leak, it has been fixed in 3.30

I trust you.

But that picture proves that gnome is superior. They aren't afraid to trigger Jow Forumstard reactionaries

>80% cpu
YOU WHAT

Should I switch from KDE5?

What does the desktop compositor even do at that point?

>incredible performance patches
I don't get it, how is this a good thing? It's just showing how bad GNOME's performance was to begin with. There's probably plenty more work that needs to be done.
I'd rather get improvements and features than some huge performance "fix" that shouldn't have been needed in the first place.

How long until it reaches Ubuntu or... ahem Debian ?

The before and after shows nvidia really does have dogshit drivers.

It's good because it's better than it was. It is, however, not good that we should be fixing this stuff in the first place but hey, open-source GNU gonna open-source GNU.

I don't understand how to run a script at startup in gnome.
I press super, search for startup applications and write it there but it gets ignored.

All I wanted was to remap the keyboard and launch an utility. All of this because it ignores my .xinitrc

Equal to or less than 3?

Gnome 3 was a mistake. It's UI is pure ass.

if you’re running fedora you can try out the gnome-with-patches copr

Oh man reading the merge requests for those patches is painfull. Gnome devs are embarrassing.

3.34 > 3

gnome was already running pretty well for me. this is very welcoming and I'm glad they're improving instead of removing. also glad they're going to partner with kde

>more bloated than plasma
factually wrong
