Are you a Gnome developper and what is your implication in the project? Because, if you are not, I feel it is useless to continue this conversation with you or try to convince you. You pretend to ignore my points because it is not your taste. I would worry if you are somehow behind the gnome-shell design, but I don't care if you are a random user. The conversation on reddit was much more constructive and technically savy. Also, I think I will make a video to illustrate how broken the workflow is, without loosing time anymore with fanboys. _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list gnome-shell-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
