Guys its finally the year of the linux desktop

And it should be anything but GNOME
This is why we can’t have nice things. You brought a knife to a celebration.
Let’s just be happy for the platform, also fuck Arch.
Lol! It’s the year of the Linux desktop! Let’s celebrate!
and then...
focus on converting everyone to the Vim editor.

GNOME is fine I will die on this hill. It’s not for Windows refugees, though.

my issue with gnome is that it’s not api staple enough to trust the plugins you install will keep working

Just apt-mark hold gnome /s

That’s a fair criticism. I imagine as it matures more this might become less of an issue (yes it’s been around for ages but desktop Linux is only recently gaining some traction, so I give them some slack there), but currently it’s absolutely GNOME’s biggest downfall.
It’s also partially why I don’t recommend it for Windows refugees, if you have any expectations of how it should function there’s a good chance it just won’t work that way, and the extensions that make it work how you want it to are unreliable.
I personally have a cursed setup with GNOME and hyprland installed. I retreat to GNOME whenever my hyprland setup is borked, which is most of the time.
