I've seen the sneak peek of windows 12 (if that were true), it looks like gnome I think
None of it is ever real. People post a ton of “concept” previews, that never look anything like the final product, because M$ are more concerned with selling your data, than making a functional OS
“You will love the cloud and we will sell everything you upload to it. You won’t own your data, OS or hardware when we are done.”
My prediction is that windows 13 will stream from the cloud, your "windows" on your computer will be just a lightweight Linux OS branded by Microsoft to stream a windows VM from azure.
That's just Windows 365
Yes exactly
No, they're just going to make a lightweight NT Kernel that only has what's needed to stream a Virtual Machine.
Bold of you to assume they'd use software that's already been built. They gotta reinvent the wheel every time.
Can we get communism already?
I'm still waiting for the Libre Office citrus UI... Although LO did manage to get their version of a ribbon into it. It's still not quite there for me, though. Their icons are not as good and I get lost in their design choices.
Windows 12
Bing logo in the corner, this is confirmed legit
oh my god, they're trying to accommodate for screen touch users too, I'm getting windows 8 flashback here
You do realise that is not Windows, don't you?
Doesn't matter that much how it looks. It will be equally annoying and disturbed compared to windows 11, or worse. :)
Microsoft stopped making operating systems for the user a long time ago.
This is what happens if you let the services team design the OS, same is happening on iPhones as well, to be fair. On iPhone, it is just a little more decent.
I personally see iphones as awful and a waste of money.
You should get a android phone and install Lineage os. F-droid is the only app store you need.
You sometimes need Aurora, but otherwise yeah
Gorshenin detected.
Yeah, F-Droid sucks. The team makes arbitrary rules for the packages that are not mentioned anywhere on their website and rejecting packages based on said arbitrary rules. Happened to me.
The rules are fairly clear and are to protect the end users from abuse and anti features. F-droid doesn't just deny you for no reason.
As I said, it was a rule made up on a spot. Though recently I've read that they had a problem with one of the maintainers being a dick to people, so I'm curious if it was that one.
What was the rule?
That they don't allow apps that are wrappers for a PWA.
Yeah, I can see that. By using a PWA they lose control over what changes get shipped to the end user. It stinks but it makes sense. (At least to me)
They lose the control anyway, because the deploy process is automated. Doesn't make sense to me at all. It's open source and it follows all their rules, rule against PWA is nowhere on F-Droid.
Well I don't make the rules nor do I work on the F-droid core team. Maybe start a discussion on the forms. Just try not to use a harsh or abrasive tone as it isn't well received usually.
Nah, I'm done with them, I just stopped using them.
Looks more like plasma 6 than GNOME to me..
