So, I tried #fedora34 today and I didn't expect to be disappointed, but here I am. I don't like #gnome40, in fact it is making me consider a different distro and different DE for a laptop that I have that currently runs Fedora. Lately, #arch with the #lts kernel has really been my favorite. But, I don't want 2 machines with the same distro. So, the search for another distro continues. I think #linuxlite may be a contender.

@codeHaiku Out of curiosity, which part of Gnome 40 bothers you? Does something go against your workflow?

@PunaisetPimpulat I suppose it is just me getting used to the change. I first tried it on a desktop and, last night, tried it on a laptop. It is a better experience on the laptop thanks to the 3 finger gestures.

@codeHaiku I’m using it on a touch screen laptop, and I don’t have any real complaints besides the fact that the default orientation happens to be portrait. Haven’t found a solution yet, but eventually I will. But on a desktop with a normal keyboard and mouse, I prefer to use KDE or Cinnamon. In an environment like that, I can’t really see myself using Gnome.

@PunaisetPimpulat I have been using Gnome as my DE for many years now on my main desktop and the computers my kids use. It is very kid-friendly, especially with the Dash-to-Dock extension.
