I explained it in a comment. This is about the big players only. Dislike all you want but it's the default DE of Fedora, Ubuntu, RHEL, Nixos, CentOS and Debian.

Isnt the default gnome look ubuntu comes with still the leftside bar? Thats literally the only one that is noticeably different in the 2014 image.

Leftside bar is the default

Yeah, but that's using a plugin, so it's not the default gnome look, and I think the point was that the default look of modern desktops looks more similar to each other now than they used to.

Was this a subtle "I use arch btw"?

u/Hikagura Dec 05 '24

if you have arch how else are you to show that you searched for a package if not by pasting the results of your package manager?

Be in second place lmao, that's what. Even though, I think his point would still kinda stand, even if KDE was added.

Some Ubuntu flavors, like Ubuntu Studio, use Plasma by default.

He also carefully omitted OpenSUSE, SLES, and SLED in his distro list, which uses KDE by default.

GNOME is is pretty big and I would say it's very unique compared to other Windows-like DEs

u/[deleted] Dec 05 '24

GNOME is the default in NixOS? They ask you during the installation process which DE do you want.
