Bad macOS clone.

It's alright if you need a retard-proof workstation, or something to put on grandma's machine so she can get her solitaire fix.

Otherwise it's just the cheap-Chinese-knockoff version of OSX. Even if you literally only care about lying to yourself and pretending you're using that OS, other DE's can be tinkered with and made to look like it, and function better.

>lacks customisation and functions considered standard on almost any other DE
>installing any "app" that did not come pre-installed will not blend in well with the gay Pantheon "aesthetics" and therefore look like dogshit

Funfact from Wikipedia:

The three core rules the developers set for themselves were "concision", "avoid configuration" and "minimal documentation"

While its not my daily, it seems like a nice OS for someone who just wants to browse the web and maybe install some other stuff too. IIRC they've added a really nice software center, and from what i can tell they're trying to make a Linux distro who's users don't HAVE to use the command line

I would recommend spinning it up in a live boot and trying it out, its definitely not unpleasant to just use.

>>61116084
Shitty homOSeX clone.

>>61119953
We're not talking about Solus here.
>>
>>61116084
I prefer Solus.

bad clone of macos
autistic devs too
>>
>waaah it looks like macOS
You never used it have you?
>>
>>61116084
It's a pretty decent desktop OS if you invest a couple of days fiddling when you get it.

If they add these features it would be awesome:

>More advanced tiling / snapping
Right now it just supports snapping windows to the left half of the screen or the right half. At a minimum they need to add support for snapping to quarters like W10 supports. Ideally they should add advanced tiling options.

>File manager is still a bit basic
Even so, it does support tabs and three types of file views, one of which is the columned Finder one. If they could add a Total Commander type split view and a Windows Explorer type view with filetree in the left pane it'd be pretty much perfect.

Also move to wayland so we lose this horrible tearing I guess

>>61121078
t. Using Elementary as my primary OS

I dual boot W10, but havent fired that up in about a month

AMA I guess.
>>
>>61116084
why would anyone use linux outside of a server?

Are you poor?

Great for kids and old people using the stock programs. If you need more, Ubuntu is a better choice.
