    GNOME is more keyboard-focused than KDE. It just also happens to have much better touch support.

    Get this meme to /linuxsucks where it belongs.

      How is KDE less keyboard-focused? I spent like ten minutes setting up kwin shortcuts and now have the same level of keyboard-only interaction as with any WM.

          Oh, I get it! I just have to reprogram my brain to the GNOME way instead of the much more efficient way that I actually want!

              iOS users think the same way born from ignorance. But hey, if you don’t mind inefficient workflows and an extreme lack of customization to fix that, then GNOME works.

                I don’t find it very inefficient. There’s also plenty of customization. This is a pretty specious comparison; on iOS you literally pay money a la carte for minor customization options. On GNOME, you might have to turn to less-supported third party extensions, or God forbid do some very minor config file or command line work. Far less than you’d need to do to do something similar in a tiling wm, of course… And most things that end users who just want to actually use their computer might care about are supported already. The system tray is the single feature I think is glaringly missing from GNOME currently, hopefully they’ll get that officially supported soon.

                Kind of weird to get so bent out of shape about some people choosing to use a certain interface.

                  Lmao, you even admit hoe dumb it is with the system tray. And you’re wrong, I can have XFCE exactly hoe I want it in a matter of 15 minutes, using only the settings apps, and it will absolutely dog walk the workflows of GNOME.
