Just got a steam deck and immediately checked out the desktop mode, and I was somewhat surprised to see KDE and pacman as opposed to GNOME and apt, I have nothing against the former though a strong preference for the latter, anyone know why Volvo went in this direction?

Lol, typical Lemmy to blame everything on capitalism.

Gnome is just incredibly annoying to use. It's not a trendy thing to say, it's just my opinion.

I really enjoy gnome, I much prefer it.

[-] lud@lemm.ee 3 points 6 months ago

That's fair enough. I don't understand why personally but you do you.

I find some software annoying too but I'm not 12 so I don't feel the need to shit on people volunteering their time to make software for people.

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.
