Not intending to open up the discussion of Gnome vs Unity, simply expressing my own personal opinion about 18.04 Bionic Beaver choice of Gnome. Gnome 3.28 feels like a significant downgrade to me, coming from 16.04 Unity interface. I played with it for a few days in an honest attempt to get used to it and make the most use of it. No, I am missing too many time-savers from Unity. I am missing my Thunderbird icon in the system tray. Finally, I gave up and switched back to Unity + compiz and now I am happy again. The good thing though is that, once Unity is installed on 18.04, you get to choose to login to Unity or to Gnome/X or even to Gnome/Wayland in case you want to continue playing around with Gnome. --- Talk Mailing List talk@gtalug.org https://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
