     @kaia GNOME peaked with GNOME 2, because Sun Microsystem invested massively in making it into a commercial-level desktop environment.

     @kaia hat diesen NT4-Look. eigentlich ganz nice. Leider noch nicht mit guten Bildschirmschriften ausgestattet (irgend ein Helvetica-Knockoff)

     @kaia I fully agree and I miss this. I was using KDE 1 for a long time which looks quite similar.

     @kaia I won’t fight you. I will sit right by your side and support you because I feel the same.

     @kaia Its true. Gnome 1 was great. By Gnome 3 it was an abomination of resourse taxing bloated garbage.

     @kaia I liked that GNOME, but it was sufficiently resource hungry that at the time I preferred other stuff.

     @kaia I agree with that. Gnome 2 and newer look ugly.

     I don't know what the obsession is with eye candy besides that corporations know that people like it and that it enables non-technical people to use it while also ensuring more people know less about how their software and hardware work.

     Which is why corporations and rightly so, realize that the more flashy the eye candy, the more they can get away with devious stuff in the background.

     Its rather infuriating...

     :(

     @kaia Even Lumina Desktop is too bloated for me to be honest. But it is the least aggravating desktop environment, due to not needing so many bloated linux frameworks.

     LXDE, no
     XFCE, no
     LXQT, hell no
     MATE, Hell NO!
     KDE,GNOME3, drugs required to think its worth anything!

     Cinnamon, Budgie, Unity, GNOME4 and worse meaning "bloat"

     Yeah let's pretend those desktop environments never were created

     @kaia@brotka.st Hmm, not sure to be honest. I do prefer the modern look - back in the day I also skinned GNOME 2 to look "better". But I do think, the UI design (besides aesthetics) of GNOME 3 is really good - way better than Windows, GNOME 2, KDE, ...
