Ultrasquid 💀's latest activity

@dansup why is the highlighted tab smaller than the non-highlighted ones? In most UIs I've seen, it's the other way around.

@dansup Gnome is kinda like MacOS in some ways, but they're very different and I would hesitate to call them similar at all.

Gnome is very heavily focused around the idea of hiding information unless you specifically request it. The desktop is entirely blank outside of the top panel, and app management happens almost exclusively within the overview.

It also is designed to be used on pretty much any input device, meaning it has a lot of gesture support and multiple ways to do the same action. For example, the overview can be opened with the super key, the hot corner, or a three-finger swipe.

For this reason, I like Gnome on laptops, where screen space is at a premium. However, I typically like to use something else on a desktop, where I lack a touchpad for gestures and preserving screen space is a little less of a necessity.

@dansup @pixelfed definitely a lot better and infinitely more readable.
