Legit reason.
Now i hate all DE.

Why would you use a DE for Linux? Wouldn't it lag like shit when SSHing in and trying to do basic tasks?

This is one of the maim reasons why I will never switch to GNU/Linux.
None of the DE/WM's seem to be developed professionally.

You're a retard

iktf anon, It's really annoying how heavily focused desktop projects in general are with "aesthetics over function".

give me a basic window manager and status bar and I'll be satisfied, hell i'd be happy as fuck running some antiquated desktop like CDE if it was still alive.

Why?

>>57091567
Unity is pretty comfy, if you customize it.
Cinnamon is perfect, no need for anything.
XFCE is also good, and very lightweight.

>TFW too intelligent to use Linux

>>57100576
TWin (forked from Kwin, probably) or you can configure it to use compiz. I don't actually use it much because I'm all "DEs are shit, who needs them" but I keep it around so I can load it up in a separate X session for maximum comfy screencaps. It's essentially a fork/rewrite of KDE 3.5 that uses Qt 4 and doesn't depend on HAL.

>>57091567

There are exactly 2 good ones.

Challenge:

Make a desktop environment that doesn't waste too many resources and can be completely customized through graphical user interfaces.

That is, there is no element where you need to edit an XML file to change a font or anything like that.

>>57100715
KDE was this before 4.

>>57100759
I know. I loved 3. I would even still use it today but I moved on to other stuff. I'm never sure of which desktop to use now.

>>57100779
Seriously then, give Trinity a try. Depending on your distro of choice, it might be hard to hunt down/build working packages, but I managed to do it on Slackware so it's not impossible.

>>57100641
Pretty sure that brain jar is running Compiz, though.

>>57100805
Damn, why did I not hear of this before? Many thanks.

>>57092596
Uhhhh SSH opens a shell. Not a desktop environment.

>>57100864
Then whatever the equivalent is of SSH for a DE.

>>57100900
That's VNC or X network transparency (which can be used over SSH). Although nobody remotely administrates a Linux server with a graphical shell unless they're retarded.

It is useful to communicate desktops though, no differently than you would Windows using VNC as well or something like MS Remote Desktop.

i3 is incredible.

>>57100805
I've heard about possible security holes in TDE since the code is so old, is it a legitimate concern?

>tfw I'm fine with Gnome 3

I just have to hope they don't remove every feature I like.

>>57101211
But it's not old... It is actively developed.

>>57101333
>I just have to hope they don't remove every feature I like.
GNOME 3 could have been an amazing DE but they completely fucked it up with shit like this

>>57091567
KDE Plasma 5 is comfy as fuck, fampai.

papyros has been revived. It looks pretty dope.

>>57101788
How can you be even minutely comfy with an irremovable hamburger menu on your desktop? KDE3 was the last komfy desktop environment.

>>57101930
you can remove it in desktop settings..

>>57101954
show me your aesthetic as fuck kde setup with no hamburgers, flat UI, resource wastage, and other ugly unusable bullshit

>>57102016
I use gnome dude. But I know for a fact that you can remove the hamburger menu in plasma 5.
