@jAsE Ah windows, only good to let sunlight and a cold breeze in

@jAsE Linux wasn't built for the desktop ?then why do we have gnome shell, kde, unity, enlightenment, mate , cinnamon , i3, bspwm etc ..
After years running Gnome shell I find it hard to do the simple task of adjusting the volume on a Windows machine .... -
@jAsE that's because you don't know what easy is .. from what you have written it's evident that you haven't used a modern Linux distro ..Linux both gnome and kde has more uniform and more modern UIs than Windows

@jAsE lol your whole not made for desktop thing just fell apart and that's what you have to say ? so now you are arguing that ease of use is not important? Why'd I use something difficult to use if I got an easy option ?
