#GNOME bubble out there: Can anyone recommend a sane, clean theme for use with a professional day-to-day device that doesn't have touch input? Definitely spoilt by the @elementary design which unfortunately isn't an option on that box - yet most of the themes I tried feel somewhat candy-colored or like ripped out of a comic strip. Isn't there something cleaner, preferrably with small window borders? What do you use day to day? The box is on Debian bullseye by the way. Boosts appreciated. 🙂

#Fedora / #GNOME folks: Is there any way to configure an out-of-the-box F32 installation to make meaningful use of a smaller screen? I'm each and every time astounded to see how large many things (especially icons and window borders) in current GNOME are. Is there a default / recommended way to fix this...? #followerpower

Something else on my production system that has brought me through the last three(?) weeks by now. My environment choice gets more stable it seems, for ... reasons. #unixporn #screenshot #GNOME #popos #system76

Playing with different #Linux distros for the sake of it, I had the pleasant experience of finding out that System76s Pop! OS, despite the disputable name, provides a reasonably well-crafted, -designed and -preconfigured #GNOME desktop experience on top of latest Ubuntu as well. I still miss #UbuntuGNOME very much, or even a sensible, desktop-focussed variant of plain Debian (stable, testing) with recent #GNOME ...

I still mostly feel comfortable using #GNOME as a desktop that hardly does get into ones way (and I've been trying virtually everything else just recently), but if there's one thing they never really managed to deal with in a meaningful way, then it's (legacy?) system #tray #icons. This is really strange and a bit annoying at times... 😟

At times I really wonder why #Mozilla can't "simply" build a browser with all relevant privacy settings built-in and easily accessible rather than suggest users to install additional extensions that only could make things worse... On another note, adopting #GNOME browser is more challenging than I thought.

Trying to at least temporarily replace Firefox with #GNOME web browser. Day 1. Let's see .... :)

@bleakgrey Running #tootle master on a #GNOME 3 device, seems a bunch of icons are missing (see screenshot as an example). My fault?

Anyone out there knows how to make #thunderbird 60 screen fonts usable (a bit larger, at best adhering to the rest of my desktop) on #linux / #gnome?

Can anyone point me to where, in #GNOME web browser, enable Do-Not-Track settings? Didn't manage to find it myself... 😐

Spending part of the morning installing #Debian once again after years on #Ubuntu, mainly to figure out how much effort getting an up-to-date #GNOME experience is, on that platform.
