I’m not sure what the cause is exactly. Some say it’s user error and they just didn’t realize they had done something wrong, but i’m pretty sure there’s an entire subreddit dedicated to it lol. My guess is maybe you install a package that pulls in the entire gnome desktop as a dependency, but i don’t think that would make it boot into gnome by default just because you have it installed.

I thought this post was referring to the “gnomed” phenomenon where people boot up their pc and all of a sudden it loads up the gnome DE, without having it installed previously lol

I never noticed that the gnome terminal uses light mode by default. Bit everytime i had to use gnome the first thing i do is turn on dark mode in the settings, so maybe that’s why.

It’s weird how that happens sometimes. Back when endeavourOS was all the hype i tried installing it in a vm multiple times, and for some reason the installer would always fail. But everyone was singing it’s praises, so i’m assuming i just had bad luck and tried it at a bad time.

Lol, wasn’t that pretty much how it went with that story from a Google employee who claimed their AI was sentient?
