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.

I'm currently in Gnome again. Two weeks ago it was kde for a few months. I keep switching back and forth. :)

I switched to kde yesterday after a few months on gnome :-) Also tried Hyprland a couple of weeks ago but tiling WMs are not for me.

I'm forcing myself to use QTile on my laptop because deep down I honestly believe it's more efficient, but man is it hard to get used to tiling WMs.

Hyprland does look really nice though.

I'm currently giving Karousel a go, seems like a decent step between a full on tiling wm (which isn't for me, really) and a stacking one.

I always end up back in gnome. With a few adjustments it feels like home. Desktop icons, dash to dock, adw3-gtk theme for older apps, plus some small adjustments with the tweaks app.
