A Lengthy, Pedantic Review of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver)
I'm not mincing my words here but Gnome 3 is just an unpolishable turd and needs to go away. It's just trying to be original and clever but has missed the mark so incredibly far that makes it the most frustrating thing possible to use on a daily basis. I have tried on and off for 2 years and it is just eye gouging pain to use. I crawl back to xubuntu and XFCE in the end every time as it does the service of getting out of my way.Honestly they need to actually provide a desktop that isn't a piece of crap, isn't some new paradigm and one where every UI element isn't an inch across (munged up shitty titlebar/toolbar hybrid) or virtually invisible (scrollbars) or has pointless transparency somewhere, isn't built on a stack of processes and packages deeper than a Java enterprise stack trace and actually has some quality control.What we have at the moment, including the terrible QC of systemd, is a travesty which simply discredits the excellent kernel and userland underneath.
