    My experience is with whatever Gnome-centered desktop ships with Ubuntu. It’s on a headless box that I shut off today for ¤reasons, so I have no clue what it’s called.

    And thank god I am hale and hearty and sighted and a nerd, and it’s not my daily driver, so I have not yet been cut to ribbons on the sharp edges. I do however have a blind partner, whom I know better than to try to impose Linux on. Her daily experience with the shit webdev/mobdev pumps out daily is not good, so yeah, there’s plenty of blame to go around.

      I have no idea what Canonical calls it either. It’s basically just a skin that makes Gnome look a bit more shit as far as I can tell.

      I thought this was about C-niles, but apparently all mobile and web devs are shit as well. I’m sure that random mobile and web apps are somehow very relevant to Linux DEs being accessible or not, but since you already “know better”, there’s no need to discuss this further really.

          behind almost every shit linux design decision, there’s a handful of reply guys with nothing but the time and energy to defend it to the death, to the detriment of everyone involved
