I came to understand the philosophy and the kind of user, and specially workflow, most desktop environments try to appeal

however, I don’t fully understand Budgie, have you used it? what can you tell me about it?

I do know, that the open nature of GNU/Linux makes not everything having to “fill a gap”, there can be more than one project with similar goals and that’s okay I just want to know it better

    My headcanon is that they wanted to offer a modern middle ground between GNOME and KDE Plasma. Perhaps we might refer to it as “COSMIC before COSMIC” but without:

    • being built on Rust,
    • Wayland-first design,
    • easy and well-thought-out tiling on demand.

      COSMIC before COSMIC

      that’s a really cool view, maybe that’s the “gap” they tried to fill before getting stuck without tiling too
