It really doesn't. I agree that several years ago I would've given it more points for looks than the other OS' but nowadays OS X just looks kind of uninteresting and old.
You could even build a way better looking Windows theme with little effort.

Kubuntu is so far very very very okay. I have had small problems such as DVDs not playing right even after installing libs for them and even screen fetch fucking up a little bit.

Why do all of you linux fags still use square monitors? Are you unaware it's 2016?

Look guys I installed a KDE distro and riced it up. I'm just a freedom loving programmer. Look at my Anime wallpaper too! I even use terminal application based applications because I'm that cool! :D

The UI hasnt changed much in the last 10 years Ive used OSX. While Windows and Linux have taken more strides towards design and user friendliness OSX just kind of sat there. OSX did set the bar in minimalism way back when and I do recall people ricing their windows rigs to look more Appleish but no one really cares now. I dont really have any good suggestions but when youve become used to a certain design for too long it just gets old. Maybe a little bit of a shakeup would help. Trade the metallic borders and plasticy icons for something else.

>>52366899
Functionality wise elementary os lacks so much.

>>52377953
yeah, you can find a good theme or even try to make your own.

but be warned, when you go that far down the rice hole, there will always be something that doesn't fit.

>>52377953
LUbuntu defaults to something clean and transparent. Might wanna try that if you don't already have an OS installed.

>>52377963
>implying ease of use and a time tested UI scheme is bad

>>52377968
I'm on xubuntu right now and I prefer the slightly more system resources

>>52377985
Its ugly and depressing. Everything other than kde and gnome might be a good choice for a PC you were about to donate to an african. But for modern hardware it's just a joke

>>52377989
See if you can install the LUbuntu "package". I haven't used Ubuntu in a while, but I remember being able to install the different UI "flavors" as a set of packages through apt-get

>>52378015
That's the point. I want it to look good while have as little overhead as possible. I want my PC to be fast when I want it to be, and not waist cycles on the damn background.

>>52378049
Linux is pretty smart when it comes to processing time. having a heavy UI will not bog down other process.

If it becomes a problem, you can set the niceness level of your UI higher

>>52378049
>waist cycles in the background

What do you think your computer is doing? 30% of your power goes to running the clock regardless. It is always cycling. The reason for a light ui is less overhead when you actually need those cycles.

>>52377489
found the mac fag

>>52378162
I thought I implied that I wanted those cycles free in case I need them, not that it wasn't cycling.

Don't know why this triggers the /g/ user.

Mouse accel is a predictable, consistent behavior. It means I don't have to injure my wrists moving the mouse 2 feet to spam my quad monitors. It also means I can have fine grained control for text selection/graphics/programming/gayming.

Sure, it requires more dexterity and muscle memory, but it's superior in every way.

So again, you'd have to be a pleb to actually not want mouse accel.

Apple doesn't have to include flashy UI revamps in new OS releases to get people to upgrade, and what's there has been proven to work pretty well, and large chunks of it have been refined for over 30 years. That's not the sort of thing to haphazardly throw out the windows because some tiny subset of users have become bored.

maybe if you move your mouse at perfectly the same speed for every motion.
or if you're autistic enough to use like 400 dpi on a 4k monitor

>>52369784
Optimize this

>>52367739
It's really shit. The only good thing left about GNOME is they are ignoring that stupid flat fad.

>>52378247
I rock around ~500-700 dpi over quad 1920 monitors and with a nice short quick motion I can drag a window to the farthest screen.

>maybe if you move your mouse at perfectly the same speed for every motion.
Holy fuck why is it so hard to understand that mouse movement speed correlates to greater distance traveled?
