Laughing from a PopOS Virtual Machine (I'm getting my AMD GPU soon, I'll switch over fully then I promise!).

It’s not meant to game anyway, so who gives a fuck?

My dad and aunt have used Zenbooks and Vivobooks for years without issue. Maybe the ROG lineup aren’t as durable?

Raggedy Andy is one of the best nicknames I’ve seen for him yet. Possibly better than Andrew Taint.

I may be confusing LXDE with LxQt then. I was thinking of a de that’s basically confirmed to be on life support/maintenance only with no major overhaul planned. My bad.

For applications like that it makes sense. But afaik it still doesn’t plan to support Wayland at all so anyone doing multi monitors can get fucked lmao

I didn’t find it judgmental, I was slightly concerned that you were genuinely upset. I have some autistic friends who find it difficult not to take things literally and feel genuinely hurt, so I’m often cautious not to make jokes with them that seem mean-spirited.

I didn’t mean to be insulting to any people who actually enjoy Cinnamon. Sorry if it came across that way.

I’m being tongue-in-cheek. I personally find Mint boring and dated, and it can be pretty buggy on newer or more complex setups. I don’t actually think that you “hate fun”, it’s my hyperbolic way of saying that Cinnamon isn’t fun to use for me.

Sometimes being literal makes things less fun, too.

I have barely used them, so I’m not the best at explaining, but for me it boils down to a number of things.

First, TWMs are meant to work with keyboard shortcuts more than with any mouse input. Easy for those to conflict with the shortcuts of your app.

Second, compatibility might be an issue if your TWM doesn’t use a normal compositor. I don’t know how well something like Blender would render its UI on a TWM.

Third would be that a lot of creative apps are not meant to be tiled by the system and have their own solutions for window management, which could conflict with the TWM.

I’m sure there are more reasons. I can’t think of them just now.
