Links but no screenshots, insert joke about Gnome's UX.

Thanks!

I'm still sticking with KDE.

[–] Geodad@beehaw.org 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I have tried KDE several times, and can't bring myself to like it.

To each their own.

Christ, it's like Linux distros are about choice!

[–] Geodad@beehaw.org 8 points 3 weeks ago

I know, right? πŸ™‚

I'm split, I love kde's features and customization, but GNOME's workflow is amazing. I currently use one on my pc and one on my laptop.

[–] Mwa@thelemmy.club 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

But i love gnomes ux and ui

Try Cinnamon, best of both worlds.

So it just some wallpapers? I feel like that doesn't count as a theme

[–] 7eter@feddit.org 4 points 3 weeks ago

the title of this post is misleading. I was hoping for more, but the article also never mentions theme.

[–] Omega@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 weeks ago

To be fair, nowhere on the actual page does the GNOME team talks about it being a theme. :)

[–] Geodad@beehaw.org 2 points 3 weeks ago

My brain sees theme and wallpaper interchangeably. Sorry, fixed it.

Wherever you stand on the reason for this change, you can't deny that these themes are gorgeous.

[–] kittenzrulz123@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Can anyone here post a screenshot?

[–] 7eter@feddit.org 3 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

it's just 2/4 wallpapers that are linked in the article.

Damn, they look absolutely horrible

[–] Mwa@thelemmy.club 2 points 3 weeks ago

Now I get where they is LGBTQ wallpapers in GNOME now

Dear Homo,

Recently, someone told us you are now profitable. Keep fighting for your rights, and we'll be there, when it's over, to steal credit for any victory.

Sincerely,

Anycorp ^TM^

[–] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 54 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I get your feeling but Gnome is not a corpo, it's an open source project

[–] 60d@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 weeks ago

Yea really it's directed at Any.org also.

[–] Omega@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

GNOME is not a corporation. And second, in case you haven't noticed, we're not exactly popular nowadays. GNOME is actually filled with LGBTQ people who are making and running this project.

In the times we're going through right now, this is not just a rainbow capitalism move, this is a statement of actual support. Especially the fact that they are keeping the trans colors in, despite the fact that right now trans people are getting fucked over left and right.

Also, LGBTQ is not just... homos. What?

[–] 60d@lemmy.ca -1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Lol okay, I thought it was clear that my post was just japes and jabs. Sorry if it legitimately offended.

[–] Omega@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 weeks ago

It's ok. Sorry if I sounded too aggressive.
