I made this post because I really like the design of GNOME, and although i'd like customizability, it is mostly enough for my everyday needs. But I want to understand why people may choose other desktop environments..or why you would/would'nt use GNOME.

I use a vanilla Gnome without extensions - Arch Linux.

  • clean desktop
  • I don't want distraction desktop with tons of infos....app like NextCloud must running without infos about syn etc.
  • for productivity need clean and optimal desktop with tiling windows
  • 3 or 4 working desktops
  • and keyboard shortcuts

Most important for me, less blotware, functional, clean and minimal distraction - minimalist desktop.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
