Copilot being back on the taskbar after removalafter taking my show desktop button (also removed) was it for me as well. Already enjoying it. Some quirks, but I think I’m going to spend way less time configuring than I am trying to unfuck windows once a week.
They are in linux forums spruiking chatgpt/copilot as well. Mods deleted my comment the last time I told them to get lost. The rampant commercialism is so frustrating. The FOSS community has done so much to empower users/developers and give everyone the tools to learn, grow and customise their systems with amazing documentation and access to source code. And it is going to be Disneyfied within a generation with the fruits of our labor locked up behind billionaire controlled subscription services in flagrant disregard of our copyright and licences. Our kids won’t know how to tie their shoelaces without paying Nadella, Altman and their shareholders for instructions.
Gnome is a desktop environment, which you can install into virtually any distro. It’s the default for Fedora, which is a good enough place to try Linux for the first time.
Could be the actual GNOME distro or they just forgot to type the name of the distro, which they’re using the GNOME version of. Sometimes that happens to me too, where I just leave out a word.
i dont recommend it as a daily driver, im just testing out the latest between kde plasma and gnome desktop environments to see who handles touchscreens better.
im one of those people that like poking the monitor.
I just installed gnome on my laptop because they kept spamming the copilot shit.
I use my os to get started on what im doing, not fuck around with all the repeating notifications that can’t be disabled.

Hah!
Welcome to Shoes as a ServiceTM!
Microsoft GitHub injects Copilot ads in their source views. It’s another Microsoft service worth abandoning.
What distro is gnome?

both, i installed gnome os and kde neon to get a preview of latest.
im on my way to fedora 40.
Nice, I’m using Fedora too. Switched to it from EndeavourOS (arch-based) a while ago.
Assuming they used the top link, Fedora?

I hope they’re experiencing less instability than I am then, F39 is the first release in years that’s given me any problem, and it’s doing that a lot.
no major issues so far on fedora 40 beta.
gnome 46 is looking very nice and gnome 47 even more better on gnome os. fedora gave me secure boot.
i gave kde neon a spin and loved it too. i’m hunting for the best touchscreen support.

i dont recommend it as a daily driver, im just testing out the latest between kde plasma and gnome desktop environments to see who handles touchscreens better.

in-fact, I’m already omw to fedora 40.
