Imagine spending 3+ years on staying mad at GNOME to release the most underwhelming software imaginable.
System76 is best known for spreading misinfo and lies about GNOME and other upstreams, selling overpriced re-branded clevos, “being made in America”, loving rust and hyping on twitter and mastodon.
Most of the “backlash” against GNOME comes from the a community that has more opinions than users or just straight up misinformation and spite.
COSMIC is very poorly designed, it might be written in the “memory-safe programming language” but it’s clear that they don’t have a design backbone. They basically created the caricature of GNOME’s adwaita but now you can paint your windows in whatever barf-inducing color you want.
They built an entire new desktop from scratch rather than work with GNOME or KDE and in that amount of time, literally every issue that sparked that redesign was resolved upstream in both aforementioned desktops.
If you actually interact with Hexbear, you fill find meaningful and balanced interactions from an actually leftist & progressive perspective, just FYI.
Don’t believe all the slander you hear BTW.
Sure, buddy, all the love for CCP, Vladimir Putin, Mao Zedong is slander…HexBear is basically lemmy.ml with a mask on. That has a similar issue of somewhat sane topic based communities with all the Authoritarian bootlicking in different places. The second you slander any of these revered authoritarian bully in their subs (usually in relevant places like news), you’re reported and face banning.
“Leftists” who love the CCP, Vladimir Putin, Mao Zedong,
<insertAuthoritarianBullyHere>, etc.The denizens of HexBear are temporarily inconvenienced dictators in waiting.
