Jesus

I still use Mate because I can't let go of the old style desktops. Luckily Mate is still in active development so we won't be left behind with all this Wayland/Weston shit.

Style over substance. And while I agree the latest Plasma looks rather nice, I'd rather have something like MATE or XFCE.

KDE does have style AND substance, though.

that looks like a flash game

KDE3 is the GOAT desktop
Install trinity

They dropped that login theme after confusing complains about that ugly user picture with the whole direction. Now it's back to that mess we had before.

>>55586142
I would like it better if it didnt have all of it's bullshit programs attached like windows.

Me too. I tried a dozen Distros and DEs and Mint Cinnamon is the best. Manjaro KDE looks great ass well, but Cinnamon was just easier to use. The Mint-Y-Dark theme is bretty nice btw. I Like it much

>>55588665
i like xfce

>>55588665
Cinnamon solves a lot of problems, creates others.
XFCE is good for customization and ease of use.
Mate is perfect.

>>55586524
That's sad. I think it's pretty nice.

is this the new windows 10 general

>>55590503
Maybe. Welcome, how are you?

That's some nice memeware.

That said it still looks better and more functional than every mobile app.

Why is it that graphic design is seemingly anathema to freetards?

Every single linux distro is absolutely disgustingly fucking ugly.

>>55591382

Because the concept of streamlining the ui WITHOUT bringing down functionality is anathema to graphic designers.

>>55591382
Out of the box, yes. At least we're given the freedom to change it to look even better/shittier if we want to.

Tried kubuntu but it had major driver issues, both open source and proprietary drivers. It kept fucking crashing so I just went to xubuntu and am happy enough here. Also fuck installing KDE on it I don't feel like that shit. I want it to just werk.

Cinnamon is great and one of the reasons I finally jumped ship from Windows to Linux.
You can close windows from taskbar with MMB, have completely different customized taskbars on all monitors
Mute volume with MMB on the icon or scroll over it to change volume, you can change audio outputs, mute microphone etc all from that little icon
Scrolling over the battery icon on a laptop changes display brightness
You can add themes and "applets" straight from the DE, customize the animations of windows, have the windows a program opens be attached to their parent window like in OS X
It's full of little things like that that make me not want to change it for MATE or whatever.

The biggest problem is gnome programs like Screenshot which is buggy as fuck, and that System Monitor, Calculator and some others don't fit Cinnamon 3.0, but that should be fixed soon.

Awesome WM looks however you want it to. Bain-git is the most beautiful interface I've ever seen. This other bloated shitware like Gnome and KDE can't even compete.

>>55586142
DE are all shit, juste use a WM like awesome or openbox

Hey, remember back when Windows was copying KDE's shit? Those were good times.

how are you guys doing with battery life in KDE5? Is it better or worse than with other DEs?

>>55592948
I use KDE in Desktop and Xfce on laptop. KDE is resource hungry. Xfce looks plain garbage though
