2025 would be the year of Linux, if we could finally agree, that:

  • Fedora,
  • rust,
  • systemd,
  • wayland,
  • pipewire,
  • gtk,
  • Gnome,
  • nano,
  • flatpak, and
  • light mode

is the perfect stack of technology and configuration and that we do not need anything else. But no, you guys just had to disagree, and here we are ...

I will switch to Gnome when it can handle multiple workspaces on multiple displays properly. The fact that I can't have multiple independent workspaces for each display is a complete deal breaker for me.

[-] TheHobbyist@lemmy.zip 85 points 6 days ago

I'm with you all the way, really, except that, truly, KDE plasma and dark mode are the superior choices, obviously :)

[-] xilophor@lemmy.world 30 points 6 days ago

Not to mention openSUSE Tumbleweed instead of Fedora :)

[-] Kalcifer@sh.itjust.works 29 points 6 days ago

And Arch Linux instead of openSUSE Tumbleweed and Fedora ๐Ÿ˜Š

[-] apprehensively_human@lemmy.ca 15 points 5 days ago

And NixOS instead of Arch Linux and openSUSE Tumbleweed and Fedora ๐Ÿ˜Š

[-] Zelaf@sopuli.xyz 6 points 5 days ago

And Linux Mint DE instead of NixOS and Arch Linux and openSUSE Tumbleweed and Fedora ๐Ÿ˜Š

[-] kspatlas@lemm.ee 2 points 5 days ago

What about a Linux mint desktop theme running on top of freeBSD?

[-] mogoh@lemmy.ml 27 points 6 days ago

You have just single handedly chased away some potential Linux users and prevented Year of the Linux Desktop 2024! Just with that comment! I hope you are happy now!

Better UI consistency. It's always really annoying when you have your nice dark theme and a bright white page pops out of nowhere and fry your eyes.

For ease on the eye, keep everything black on white, and turn down screen brightness if the environment is dark.

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 8 points 5 days ago

yall need dark mode extensions on yo browsers

[-] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 17 points 5 days ago

So, i don't know if this is sarcasm or not

[-] pixelscript@lemm.ee 15 points 5 days ago

Surprised how, of all the people who took the bait, not a single one of them complained about systemd.

My beard isn't long enough to have an opinion about systemd. All I know is all my homies hate systemd for some reason.

[-] ColonelThirtyTwo@pawb.social 5 points 5 days ago

A lot of complaints I've seen is that it's bloated - it's not only a system manager but also has a DNS relay, network manager, container manager, and so on.

That said, codifying service startup and managing them with cgroups is IMO MUCH better than init scripts that think running killall apache is a good way to stop a service.

[-] tkk13909@sopuli.xyz 20 points 6 days ago

For most people yes. The only things I would say are more personal choices are nano, Gnome, and light mode

[-] blazeknave@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago
[-] Vilian@lemmy.ca 10 points 6 days ago

Disagree on gnome and nano KDE and Micro supremacy

Fuck light mode

[-] AsudoxDev@programming.dev 11 points 6 days ago

I want the kernel to be more rusty!

[-] kusivittula@sopuli.xyz 7 points 5 days ago

light mode? hello satan. also, let's swap gnome to cinnamon. and fedora to mint.

[-] kspatlas@lemm.ee 4 points 5 days ago
  • openSUSE better
  • yes (zig is good too)
  • dinit
  • yes
  • yes
  • Qt
  • cosmic (when it's done)
  • Emacs
  • flatpaks are good at their job, but I want system packages too
  • dark mode is infinitely better

Counterpoint it would be the year of the Linux desktop if we all agreed on

  • Artix
  • OpenRC
  • Wayland (but different implementation)
  • pulseaudio
  • non-gnome gtk
  • Hyprland
  • Vim
  • AUR
  • dark mode always
[-] sunoc@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 days ago

I beg to slightly differ, but it's a good take overall:

  • Aeon Desktop or Fedora Silverblue, any sane immutable system, really
  • Zig + Rust + Scheme / Clojure
  • systemd,
  • wayland,
  • pipewire,
  • gtk,
  • Gnome,
  • nano / gedit / whatever y'all are using instead of glorious Emacs
  • flatpak,
  • distrobox
  • light mode
[-] art@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

Oh! So close, Honey. We're looking for vim and dark-mode. But thanks for playing.

[-] palordrolap@fedia.io 4 points 6 days ago

nano with the new, alternative "GUI editor standard" keybinds or the old pico ones?
