I thought I was the only one! Been driving me insane since the last update.

Devs, please change the default for this!

True that. However, Linux Mint may have a better out-of-box experience.

Note: Debian is my favorite distro.

These days, you probably won’t need all that tweaking.

I’d recommend Linux Mint.

Damn, I used to have that…

And you think that a rewrite would magically solve all those technical debts?

Not only the fact this is Lemmy, this is also the Piracy section.

4.14 is close to EOL, but it is still very well supported.

I see what you did there

Gitness balls into your mouth

I just wanna be!

This is an amazing piece, regardless what I think about the AI art shitshow in general.

Some people would set up servers with a DE, and use it to manage them.

In one of my past projects, I was working with a financial company and they’d use one of those VMWare with web inferface. We set up a Debian system; and because they didn’t know any better, have the default GNOME installed.

I remeber hating it so much, especially that they’re slow due to resource constraint. We were allocating 4 GB of RAM, which was all we could get due to being in early phase. You’d think 4 GB is enough for a server, but not when it’s running GNOME!

If it were up to me, I’d go headless. However, not everyone is into that, I guess. In hindsight, I’d probably install XFCE instead. KDE would be taking quite a bit of disk space, but it’d run surprisingly light.

Mantab!

I hope they can adopt XFCE or KDE as their default DE. I feel like it would fit better in enterprise setting.

There’s an Indonesian Lemmy instance??

Linux Mint is pretty much my silver bullet for anyone asking for a distro with decent desktop experience.

What about KolourPaint?

MX Linux!

I call them folders (especially with normies) with no regret. Fight me!
