Xfce

I've daily driven every major DE except KDE (GNOME, Xfce, MATE, Cinnamon) and I always ended up switching back to xfce. I'm not a fan of GNOME's workflow and since it's not that customizable without extensions, that made me switch from it very quickly. I used Cinnamon on Mint for a few months and while the experience was mostly fine, it sometimes felt a bit laggy. As for MATE, while I love the GNOME 2 layout and it's a relatively lightweight DE, I encountered plenty of visual bugs there and I could very easily replicate that GNOME 2 layout on Xfce (without a system menu, but still).

Why are you still using uMatrix in 2024? Wasn't it discontinued 3 years ago or smth?

Because it is. And I say that as a Greek myself.

Greece has been ruled by corrupt politicians for pretty much its entire modern history. Rich people never get prosecuted for the crimes they commit, heath and education are severely underfunded with outdated equipment, badly maintained facilities and underpaid personnel, press freedom is deteriorating and governments push for neoliberal "reforms" like these.

Nowadays, pretty much yes. I more or less use the command line as much as I did on windows. Of course things like installing software via the repos is more efficient via the command line, but most GUI tools will work perfectly fine for most people.

ChromeOS if you consider it as one.

I have to say, they're certainly an impovement over Breeze, but I still prefer the Oxygen ones

Windows 12 is already a failure and it hasn't even been formally announced yet. Congrats Microsoft! You've successfully failed for the second time in a row to deliver a windows version that most users actually like even to the slightest bit.

I guess the actual YOTLD will finally arrive after 20 years.

For a moment, it seemed like the streaming apps were the things that could save us from the hegemony of cable TV—a system where you had to pay for a ton of stuff you didn't want to watch so you could see the handful of things you were actually interested in.
