although I have noticed that my preferences in life tend to work very well for one person only: Me.
Believe it or not, I have recommendations too!. So now all a new linux user needs to do is first find this post on ghacks and then read all the comments to find YOUR recommendation, which is one of endless recommendations out there. Windows, OSX and ChromeOS would not stand a chance. Now imagine a world where all linux developers would gang up, be friends and work together for example in team GNOME, team KDE, team CINNAMON, team PANTHEON. I would say that leaves us with maybe 10 distros, and in my opinion, that’s too many. The one’s that just work and one doesn’t really have to worry about a thing. The one’s that stick around, the one’s that have a great track record and satisfied users.
#CAKE OS WINDOWS THEME FREE#
A new user and someone who doesn’t read anything about linux ever does not have a clue about things that go on in the background, he/she just wants a nice free alternative that gets regular updates and doesn’t just one day stop, yes? Is that too much to ask? “but it’s FREE, so the users can shove their wishes up their kazoo, they don’t have to use it!!!” Also true, but that’s exactly what I am talking about, tell the new users which distros are the (for the lack of a better word.) GOOD ones. Want a snazzy desktop with weird defaults and the next big release that comes in 2-3 years is a newly designed network icon? Give Elementary a go. Want to try Solus and see which developer quits next, go ahead.
#CAKE OS WINDOWS THEME INSTALL#
Want to install and use every release Arne Exton puts out, go ahead, do 25 new installs every year. That actually IS a real problem, we see it happen all the time. Why? I would not want a system that gets fixes slowly or even worse, developers get angry with eachother and just quit or something. Which help forums are good and which are not helpful at all. Mainly maybe a listing where one can see which distros have a large amount of developers and which are very small teams or even just one-man shows. There should be some clear separation though, to clarify things for a new user.
