Another thing I would like to point out:
Mr. RodrÃguez cares about how the default desktop looks and I think that the
Trisquel development team will prepare a new theme when the time comes.
Remembering what Jason Self posted on his blog: "Trisquel is beautiful". And
I think he is right; even the gnome-terminal emulator has a very good looking
profile by default in my opinion, and I liked it so much that I was trying to
reproduce its feeling in my Debian system.
Well, that is my opinion about how the default apearence is. I see Gasrmith's
point on why people feel attracted to Mint, but as I wrote in the previous
paragraph, I think this distro doesn't have a lot to envy in that aspect.
And yes, Trisquel is one of the most usable GNU/linux distros out there; even
more than Ubuntu itself because the Spanish project gets rid of the
annoyances that the Canonical product has (lens, confusing interface, spying
on users, etc....). The only problem I found for an average user is the fact
that it's hard for them to unistall software.
All in all, I think Trisquel is a good example of what free software has to
offer.
