This mirrors how macOS has achieved loyalty through consistent UI/UX patterns, despite lacking the broader market dominance of Windows.

MacOS is proprietary software. They achieve such uniformity by mandating it. That is not what we want. Stop wasting resources chasing such stupid positions.

lol GNOME cannot do the same thing. That's the point. They do not have the leverage Apple does. Now how about you use your brain for the next response instead of stating vapid excuses?

You can reinvent the wheel if you want, but I'll still call you stupid for saying it's such a great idea.

I didn't say anything about whether or not they could do the same thing. I said they shouldn't try. And if you actually read my comment instead of being a complete dick for no reason at all, you might find that we agree.

The article basically says they should try.

"Not what we want" is not going to save you when the topic article is saying exactly that.

Yes, that is the issue I was addressing, thank you.

Nothing I say is going to "save me". I honestly have no idea what point you're trying to make here.

You might actually be quite expensive, judging by how you're denser than tungsten
