Just got a steam deck and immediately checked out the desktop mode, and I was somewhat surprised to see KDE and pacman as opposed to GNOME and apt, I have nothing against the former though a strong preference for the latter, anyone know why Volvo went in this direction?

    This is a dumb take too, it’s important to criticize and scrutinize anything and everything down to the smallest detail to understand what works and what doesn’t, how and why that is the case in order to make better decisions for the future. You have to think critically, especially about software even when it’s a matter of preference.

      Do you think the devs aren’t “thinking critically” as they’ve made a very cohesive de?

      Besides that, people saying “Gnome sucks, it’s garbage” is not a constructive criticism anyhow.

      The only dumb take is the one above this comment.

        What? No I was saying that NOT criticizing GNOME just because of the old thought-terminating cliché of “don’t use it then” is silly because it’s important to critique everything and no one is just saying it’s “garbage” apart from people in your head
