    Gnome. Mostly vanilla except for some extended tiling for when I need it. Also sped up animations.

    I bind Activities to an extra mouse button. But I’m also comfortable without that.

    I’ve used a lot of stuff over the years. Started with the kde 3 series. I just don’t really want to do a lot of fiddling anymore, and find the default Gnome workflow to be a really good fit for me.



  • Holy moly, I have a very similar chair but in red. I just got it so I could have a robust chair at bar-height.

    My problem is that removing the footrest portion leaves mounting brackets poking out at whichever point you remove it. So I’m particularly interested in your process for chewing through any metal bits around there.

    I don’t have trek-thematic advice, but I can tell you that little chrome armrest bit is the perfect size to rest a normal-sized trackball.













  • I see more manjaro than ubuntu.

    Ubuntu had so many years as the “default” that people have some old perfect version of ubuntu that they liked better. Some early version from the gnome2 days, or else people who loved unity.

    For my part, the last time I tried it, there were snap and apt versions of so many apps, that when you had an issue it was hard to troubleshoot because there would be two sets of solves. That was enough to get me to bail. I wonder if that’s still an issue.
