What does /g/ think of the Budgie desktop environment? I just

>>61165563
It's just a slightly tweaked version of Gnome, though. In fact, I used it for a week and just switched back to Gnome, because Budgie manages to waste even more space than Gnome does.

>>61165599
It's faster and uses less resources than Gnome, which stutters and lags like crazy on this laptop. It's worse than KDE at this point.

Zorin works great for me and it uses a modified version of Gnome 3. Nobody else seems to talk about it though

>>61165563
made by kids for kids

>>61165563
it looks good. I have used Cinnamon, MATE, Gnome, KDE and Xfce and they are all fine. i could understand /g/'s butthurt about peoples de's and distros if any of this shit cost money

>>61165667
i hope Ubuntu's new gnome release has defaults in the ballpark of that desktop.

>>61165734
Me too, I guess Canonical is too focused on making it look like trash and performing like it too. Unity is a failed abortion and I'm happy to see it go.

STOP

Fucking, stop.

This is a perfect example of why the GNU/Linux desktop is a fucking joke. Linux does not need yet another desktop environment. Contribute to the existing ones and make them better if that's your fancy.

>Starting with version 11, Budgie will be rewritten in Qt.

Of course it will. Because of course they built their own bikeshed, but the color is wrong. Again.

Those who do not learn from mistakes of the past will be doomed to repeat them.

implying i have time to or know how to develop software.

>>61165809
Hey, you're just screwing yourselves. No skin off my back.

>>61165888
In what way? None of the major DEs except for Gnome and KDE have anything that's significantly wrong with them. This strategy of letting everyone build their own thing is working quite well.

except for the whole "convincing people to write software for our OS that's not a programmer tool"

but okay, keep rearranging deck chairs on that titanic of yours.

Wtf?

>>61165888
How are we screwing ourselves by using what we want?

I've been using it for 6 months and it's shit in its current state. Maybe when it moves off GNOME it will be good, because it does have potential.

As of right now the only good DE is KDE unless you're running a literal toaster poorfag box.

>>61167002

If that's the color of your piss then I have some difficult news for you.

looks cool, ill try it out on my tablet.

>>61165621
the only thing that stutters is the applications menu with dozens of icons flying out

also, nothing stutters on wayland, its butter smooth 60 fps ( with mouse lag )

kde is disgusting

>>61168181
>>61165621
I haven't noticed any stuttering on Cinnamon.

Linux will always be shit on the desktop until they fix the atrocious font rendering. Just look at your screenshot ffs.

They're all horrible compared to Windows and look absolutely pathetic compared to OS X.

>>61165938
There is literally nothing wrong with KDE. It can't even be considered heavy at this point.

It's gnome with shell extensions.

>>61165563
Looks like shit, has bad proportions.

Seriously, it looks amateur -- especially on my screen.

>>61165563
I'm waiting for the Qt port.

Gnome + Dash to Panel is pretty good.
