I’m sure she was super impressed.

I’m pretty sure 95% of people don’t even know what Windows is. It’s just part of the computer to them.

It’s so odd how proprietary software is frowned upon so much in this community, but no one cares when it comes to gaming.

i5 4790K and a… 7900 XTX?

Have an update that completely breaks everything on your system? Just revert to the previous image and it’s no problem.

These immutable distros have so much potential. Especially for the tech illiterate. I really encourage anyone who hasn’t yet to give them a shot.

Of course they aren’t for everybody, as it makes it far harder to make system-level changes on the local system.

Gives a surprisingly good Bedrock experience on Linux and macOS. Just needs you to own the game on the Google Play Store.

It’s likely many users still use Automator (which is from 2005). Removing it could break workflows for many people if removed. There’s a bunch of older apps in macOS like this. The latest version of macOS still has AirPort Utility, for example.

This is common with these Linux on Android-based phones. I believe Ubuntu Touch requires you to downgrade to Android 9 in most cases.

Great. Time to update Nginx on my vacuum.

This is my complaint as well. KDE certainly has advantages and neat design ideas, but I always come across some major bugs that make my device unusable.

Definitely not saying GNOME doesn’t have bugs as well though.

Not only that, you asked for their opinions.

An "Advanced Mode" along with an alert to warn the user is what I was thinking.

Most settings applications (GNOME Settings, KDE Control Center) give very limited access to managing lower level components in the system. For example, kernel management, managing groups, etc.

If they did though, in your opinion, what would be the most effective way to offer a simple experience for some users, and more control for those who need it? How would most desktops implement this "hybrid" approach?

Or should users not be able to control those things graphically at all?
