So it just some wallpapers? I feel like that doesn't count as a theme

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

the title of this post is misleading. I was hoping for more, but the article also never mentions theme.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

My brain sees theme and wallpaper interchangeably. Sorry, fixed it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

To be fair, nowhere on the actual page does the GNOME team talks about it being a theme. :)

Links but no screenshots, insert joke about Gnome's UX.

Thanks!

I'm still sticking with KDE.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I have tried KDE several times, and can't bring myself to like it.

To each their own.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Try Cinnamon, best of both worlds.

I'm split, I love kde's features and customization, but GNOME's workflow is amazing. I currently use one on my pc and one on my laptop.

Wherever you stand on the reason for this change, you can't deny that these themes are gorgeous.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Can anyone here post a screenshot?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

it's just 2/4 wallpapers that are linked in the article.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

Damn, they look absolutely horrible

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Now I get where they is LGBTQ wallpapers in GNOME now

Dear Homo,

Recently, someone told us you are now profitable. Keep fighting for your rights, and we'll be there, when it's over, to steal credit for any victory.

Sincerely,

Anycorp ^TM^

GNOME is not a corporation. And second, in case you haven't noticed, we're not exactly popular nowadays. GNOME is actually filled with LGBTQ people who are making and running this project.

In the times we're going through right now, this is not just a rainbow capitalism move, this is a statement of actual support. Especially the fact that they are keeping the trans colors in, despite the fact that right now trans people are getting fucked over left and right.

Also, LGBTQ is not just... homos. What?

[–] 60d -1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Lol okay, I thought it was clear that my post was just japes and jabs. Sorry if it legitimately offended.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

It's ok. Sorry if I sounded too aggressive.

[–] [email protected] 54 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I get your feeling but Gnome is not a corpo, it's an open source project

[–] 60d 2 points 3 days ago

Yea really it's directed at Any.org also.
