[Gnome-zeitgeist] A lot of clutter in the Applications Lens
Hello Everyone, In the Unity applications lens, there are dozens of applications listed that are also listed in system settings menu. Considering the system- settings window can be reached by clicking on the upper-right-hand- corner drop down menu, as well as from the system settings application launcher in the Application lens, is it really necessary to have all of those same programs listed in the application lens? There are over 20 duplicate and un-needed applications cluttering and getting in the way of the applications that people 'want' to get to. Also, in the application lens there are logout, lock screen, restart, and shut down buttons present. Why is this? Those options are not even applicationshaving them in the applications menu makes it seem as if shut down is a program that can be run, rather than an integrated part of the operating system. Basically, these 4 options have no place in the application lens, as they are not even applications, as well as already being listed in the system drop down menu (in the upper right hand corner). If the end goal is to make unity more user friendly and more organized, I just listed 27 items that can be removed from the application menu with, from what I can tell, no adverse consequences. On a freshly installed system there are over 90 applications listed, and I have heard from many people that this is an annoyance and a turn off It is my personal opinion that having unnecessary duplication and redundancy is of no use, and just causes more confusion overall. If we want people to access System Settings to change their global settings, then we should add all of those same items mingling in the applications lens. It makes the System Settings menu not a vital part of the distribution, but just a convenience window. What do you guys think? -- This message was sent from Launchpad by Britt Yazel (https://launchpad.net/~bwyazel) to each member of the Ayatana Discussion team using the Contact this team link on the Ayatana Discussion team page (https://launchpad.net/~unity-design).
