It is I, the great and powerful Arch Wizard of Mastodon. I have used my arcane magicks to post this to Lemmy. You must like, boost, or reply to this post within one day, or else I will manifest within your abode to install a GNU/Linux distro on your computer.

He didn't, he hacked Apple's systems with sheer willpower.

Jokes on you, I installed Debian on my machine yesterday! Gnome looks sick.

You're right. He does look a little peaky.

I hate gnome it looks like someone took an interface for a mobile phone and dragged it kicking and screaming onto a pc

I like material you, so that's kinda my preference. But yes, the borders for everything are huge.

I love material you and google design languages in general they're absolutely gorgeous every iteration of material design has been better than the last and that's why I use sync for lemmy and have only used pixels since they came out but it's definitely a mobile paradigm it just feels off on a pc and their obsession with looks often come at the cost of actual usability like them getting rid of taskbar icons and putting them in an overflow menu that works for a phone where you have limited space but on a pc it's just stupid it's far more productive and quick having them out in the open and you have enough space on a monitor

Adding punctuation to your sentences could help make it readable

@Shkshkshk @196 ...If you do that to my old laptop specifically, will that make it less flaky, or is its tendency to freeze these days a hardware problem? 😜
