So futuristic brah

>Someone please suggest me a distro that is actually polished
Doesn't exist.

Some distros might look good but after some time there's always that little annoying random shit that you need to fix.

There's the problem. You were the one who messed it up, not Debian.

>>57811858
I haven't messed anything up, I know it looks like a video error but that's actually the design of the default lock screen.

just uninstall xscreensaver and get i3lock or something similar

couldn't agree more. I use Ubuntu because I need to, but Mac OS because I want to.

>>57811885
I actually used to use this before but setting all that up to work properly again (custom imagemagick script to blur a screenshot and add a lock icon for each monitor) would probably take even more time to sort out.

Why isn't there just a linux distro that actually looks good and feels polished out of the box without me having to improve every part of it?

>>57811954
Because you left it. What you're describing is Xubuntu.

>>57811983
Hmmm. In that case I might try xubuntu next. Either that or kubuntu. I think I've had both installed at some point but I can't remember if I liked them or not.

Can anyone else tell me how KDE compares to unity? Is it just as bloated?

>>57811736
look up 'how to change xscreensaver theme' lol

i once did and got a rant about how the developers didn't want it to be changed because it's their identity. don't you dare make a fork with an improved logo either

What the fuck is that? I use Debian every day and I've never seen something that disgusting. I also use LXDE. I bet your problem is just in Xfeces. Try KDE if you're new to GNU/Linux. If you want a distro that comes riced out of the box, check out Peppermint OS (https://peppermintos.com/). It's based on Ubuntu and uses LXDE. The wallpapers are shit but everything else looks pretty good.

>>57811831
Peppermint OS.

Just a reminder that if you use any version of Mac OS X higher than Mavericks, you're a fruitcake faggot.

I think xubuntu looks good. This is basically the stock logo. It uses light-locker, that is also available on debian.

Remove the screensaver then.
Are you new? Jesus
