I like gome but it needs extensions for basic runctionality and you need to use terminal for basic functionality. I have it visually basically unmodified, no dock to dash or desktop but damn i need to go extra mile to add right click new file and functional window tiling.

Huh gunny, id expect to see it hanging in a gallery rather than on lemmy.

Plantain is a whimsical tree potato.

Diaper donny: nice try, imma do it anyway, see precedent.

True but the better potential design in this case is "just dont do what you do to make notes or make notes in a way more inconvenient way.

I understand you do not get how useful this simple feature is since you don’t use it but you should be able to see it’s potential and ease of use.

I expect right click-new file.

None of those are solutions and make a widely used feature more annoying to use.

• making a readme
• making notes
• making task lists
• prewriting messeges for proof reading
• writing down passwords, keys or hashes and hiding them
• writing down links -archiving general information -not writing anything in the file and using the filename to make notes or organize -making todos -making text files you intend to fill out later as you get more info

All done conveniently by right click and double click in the folder you’re in already. No need to open another program, rummage through the menus to find “save as” or “export as” then navigate to the same location you are already in AGAIN.

Ive used txt files in windows constantly and I do not program. My archidect gf uses them constantly as well. It is very useful in a myriad of ways. Its a post it note since the other solutions for making notes, task in specific folders do not exist or suck.

The one next to it has one window in the head, that makes it look like a cyclops!

endOS and Manjaro are both that keep being reccomended a lot and I really want to check them out, but I keep forgetting. My big wishlist is working vr, working hotas, not having to mess around with nvidia drivers every kernel update. Thanks for help!

Ah thanks for the reccomendation. I’ll give endOS a go first as iirc that was not fedora based.

This user got blocked from another instance. He was insinuating europeans are all nazis and based and trad russia needs to kill them all.

Cartoon villain shit is russia not paying pensioners in baltic countries their hard-earned pensionst and blaming the baltic states for that and using that to justify genocide, invasion, torture, rape, theft and murder.

Im afraid to post my obnoxious virus idea as I don’t want mailboxes filled with job offers from microsoft and other big tech.

Yes that is what you have to do. It is ridiculous that this is what you have to do.

Oh i know i can painstakingly navigate to the correct folder with ls and cd, then google what that one command I never use is and then use man to stop the whole process and read how to use it.

It’s nice to have that option for those who want to have fun with it, but it is a joke this is the intended option in gnome of all places.

I had to install software that allowed installing extentions and then try out all the extentions until I got a tiling window manager that was not crap on gnome. And then I had to make my own presets.

Same as you but I lean towards KDE since it doesn’t break as often when programming things across sftp and also VR and HOTAS systems work better on it for some reason.

Also cause right click -> open terminal in location and right click -> new file must be part of any desktop environment as a default.

I have both versions of the workstation and KDE one is less broken, more functional and less annoying to use daily. I patiently await when the projects that require my current software packages end so I can wipe my home and go manjaro or something.

Gnome: We lock down everything since youre too wtupid to handle womputers Also gnome: “oh you want right click-create file? We can’t think of a more streamlined solution than navigating to the folder you already have open in nautilus using terminal, making an empty file with a terminal text editor and googling the command to save and exit empty file. Intuitive is our MO”

I love gnome workflow and simplicity but it is too locked down in nonsensical ways and it is too broken too often.
