So is Unity a derivative of GNOME? (winfag coming to linux)
>>59423536
who the hell cares
XFCE is the only viable DE
>>59423536
They share a lot of code but as of this point are incompatible.
>>59423545
So is unity technically GNOME?
>>59423559
No, unity is unity.
It ceased to be GNOME when it diverged with the GNOME project.
>>59423559
it might have when unity first came out but as >>59423545 said its become its own thing now.

Unity is GNOME with a bunch of tweaks to disable functions and make it look different. It's basically GNOME bundled with a heavy theme and a lot of shit disabled, and then they pack it with other independent stuff that replaces the disabled features; that way if you try to revert the theme-ing to make it GNOME everything will break. Then they take pride on this and call it a totally-not-GNOME thing.
