    Pls no I just did a minimal Ubuntu install on my MS Surface and I guarantee I’m going to need to reinstall it at least 2 more times as I bork the entire OS trying to customize GNOME.

        GNOME isn’t inherently bloated, though; the GNOME circle apps may ne bloat if you don’t need them. Liberals? Where!?

        I like bling but I don’t like bloat on my hard drive. Checkmate mister.

            I think the fact that you’re so bothered by me using default GNOME but wanting to pick my own apps is reason enough to keep it. Cry more about my personal decisions 😄

              I’m bothered by the fact that you made a statement that’s not internally consistent and contradicts itself. Like whatever you like, but if you’re going to cite a reason, be accurate. Don’t be so dense.

                How is “GNOME is bloat” an objective fact? Maybe to you GNOME is bloat because you don’t use it. But they use GNOME, so it’s not bloat to them.

                Conversely, if they don’t use XFCE, then having XFCE installed by default is a bloat to them.

                Don’t be so dense.

                It’s clear you don’t hang around many people if you expect everyone to make zero mistakes.
