> How do I get the best, most complete GNOME experience on Trisquel? I'd start with a netinstall, so that you don't have any MATE stuff cluttering your system.
To install GNOME: $ sudo apt install gnome For Trisquel look/feel (Trisquel's icon theme doesn't play nice with GTK3, but GNOME Brave looks very similar. You'll need gnome-tweak-tool to change the theme.): $ sudo apt trisquel-gtk-theme gnome-brave-icon-theme gnome-tweak tool Totem is buggy. $ sudo apt remove totem && sudo apt install mpv # or vlc Unless you really want to use Epiphany, $ sudo apt remove epiphany* && sudo apt install abrowser # or icecat If you want graphical package management tools (GNOME software is buggy) $ sudo apt install gnome-app-install synaptic If you have a touchpad that supports multitouch gestures, you could replace the synaptics touchpad driver with libinput and build libinput-gestures so that you can 3-finger swipe to change workspaces and 3-finger pinch to open the dash. IIRC you have an X200 though, so you might not have a touchpad.
