Dull Men's Club
An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

After doing the same, I also want to say how much I underestimated Gnome. It was in a weird state a decade ago but now it’s so nice.
I must say, I did go the KDE route. I haven't given gnome a shot in awhile ~ I just recall needing so many gnome extensions. Would you say that's changed?
You only "need" extensions if you want them. GNOME by default is its own thing that's pretty different from win11 and kde - everything goes through the overview, things like desktop icons and dash to dock break the intended experience.
I hated gnome, I found KDE much more feature rich and for me at least way more user friendly.
I'm using gnome right now on one pc, but i did install Dolphin lol. The default file manager on gnome crashes copying files from the server
Yeah Dolphin does the trick just fine, there's a few quirks that bother me but not enough to switch!
It probably depends on what you want or need from a desktop environment. I use Fedora with Gnome and I quite like it. The one thing I didn't like was that you can't alt-tab between multiple windows of a single application.
You can. Alt + ~
Oh, I will have to try if it works with a QWERTZ keyboard, that would be great.
You can just rebind the shortcut if you're not using an english keyboard. It's under Navigation, "Switch windows of an application".
