Re: What exactly means "GNOME" in this context?

2017-04-06 Thread Kevin Reynolds
When I "upgraded" from 14.04 to 16.04 via the software updater, it was a
complete disaster for me.  I lost Unity and have been using the Cinnamon
desktop environment since and am happy with it.  If Ubuntu is leaving
Unity it won't make a difference to me.  I'm staying with Cinnamon.

Live a good life.
If there are Gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you 
have been,
but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by.
If there are Gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them.
If there are no Gods, then you will be gone,
but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your 
loved ones.

No idea. But if they're to use GNOME Shell, I sincerely hope that they
customize it heavily. I hate GNOME Shell with a passion. Unity was
actually designed professionally by talented people with experience in
usability, and even basic things like the Alt+Tab switcher offer a
miserable, rigid experience in GNOME Shell (compare with Unity's
switcher, which is more flexible and forgiving).

What exactly means "GNOME" in this context?

2017-04-06 Thread Marcos Alano
Nice fellows,

I read the Mark's announcement about "Unity is dead. Long live to GNOME"
but what exactly means "GNOME" in this context? He's idea is to use
GNOME Shell or other window manager GNOME-based, like Budgie?
If is GNOME Shell, this will deprecate Ubuntu GNOME edition?

Thanks nice fellows! :)
