Cinnamon is pretty dope

I use Plasma because I’m literally this, but Cinnamon is what I’d recommend to people who say they want something “familiar looking but that just gets out of the way so you can start using your computer to do shit” – Which ironically is what Gnome purports itself to be.

I mean, Cinnamon is really just Gnome 2 with new devs.

I mean. Yes. But Gnome 2 was actually good. It was before the Gnome team caught the “cutting out literally everything for seemingly no reason” disease.

Before they started thinking they knew better than everyone else.

  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.

  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can’t quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
