Anything beyond ncurses is a crutch for the weak and corrupting the youth.
Upon changing ticket system at work, one of the graybeards asked about apis and cli access because “real men don’t click”
Then I must be among the manliest of men. :)
I learned all the different ways to use the keyboard in Windows and never looked back. The best of both worlds, although relearning everything now that I’ve switched to Linux is proving a challenge. I’m starting to think that the Linux GUIs don’t have true keyboard accessibility.
Where my turbo vision peeps at?
ncurses is bloat
Sorry, I like my curses restricted and old skool
Every time I take a look at collections of user created themes for anything, I am reminded why design is a profession.
Not trying to shame anyone, I’ve been an enjoyer of custom themes ever since I started using Linux, but you need to have at the very least a little contrast in your theme. That’s kinda where this conversation begins :D
User themes having poor contrast and inconsistencies is why I stick to stock themes, made by UX/UI designers who work directly with the developers.
I really don’t care about my OS UI since I’m barely actually using it, especially after a few minutes setting up one-click actions. Less than 1% of my time and effort on the computer.
Applications, on the other hand, is where I live and FUCKING HELL!!!
Does anyone know what the origin of this meme is? I started seeing it everywhere earlier this year out of nowhere
stop doing science was the original
For me, desktop UI peaked at Windows 98.
Installing the 95/98 GTK theme by B00merang is one of the first things I do after a fresh installation of Linux Mint.
I do try other themes once in a blue moon. But I soon realise it is a downgrade and revert back. The last theme I tried was the Arc theme back in mid-late 2010s.
