The KDE dorks recently had a meetup in the fucking Swiss alps BEFORE collecting money for it. They sure had a great time there with their entire families and hoped that the idiots who use their products would pay for it. Turns out that their fund-raising campaign failed miserably. They extended it but it failed again. It's all over now. They're gonna have to sell their assets (and hopefully their servers to stop making their bloatware forever) to pay for the hotel bills.

Long live Xfce and Gnome.

windows has more software than OSX will ever have.

OSX at least has the UI figured out, Linux guys like to chastise windows display drivers being built into the kernel but what they don't understand is it's done that way for performance, A desktop OS needs to be snappy and quick.

I don't know. I think it appeals to the people that liked XP and 7, and it even does some shit better, like the dark theme.
>>
>>55693367
You can theme windows, The linux crowd likes to say you can't customize windows but it's a lie, Go look up window blinds, There's tons of ways to customize windows.

Also as far back as XP there where many themes that were not included with the stock install disc, They even had a black zune theme.

I didn't say you couldn't, but the dark theme in Cinnamon is built in. It also affects apps so you can use chrome with a black address bar with light text. Makes night browsing less painful on the eyes.

Figures.

Then again, it's not so bad. GNOME has one flaw (self important autist devs that hate customization and projects outside GNOME using their libs, because muh brand image/muh time spent supporting a non-redhat product). KDE has thousands.

Yes, and it's fucking awful and severely limited compared to theming, say, gnome or kde. If you compare it to something like awesome where you can script your themes, it's just absurdly worse.
I used to desktop mod windows a lot. 7 was ok, 8 was bad, don't know about 10 because I gave up having to install this and that and patch that dll just to change a fucking border color.

sure, just install these shady .dlls or ThemeResourceChanger, copy and paste some files into System32, nothing bad will happen

also, don't mind that no actual substitute for the windows shitty font rendering is perfect and/or maintained, surely 2011 software will work just great!
