From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What do you mean? Which desktop management paradigm?
I think he's referring to Gnome, which kind of feels like MacOS?
I'm not sure what he means either, but if he meant gnome he'd have said Gnome, and probably posted it on a submission about Gnome.
And Gnome really doesn't feel like MacOS at all. Beyond a black bar at the top with a few bits in it, they're very, very different.
E: I think they're referring to the new overview menu that's essentially a clone of Gnome's Activities view. But that's not really how it is on MacOS either.
And I'm not sure why you immediately downvoted lol. Have I done something to upset you?
I didn't downvote you lol
No, I'm referring to KDE. Check the link in the post and watch the videos. The desktop switching is now working almost exactly like in MacOS.
Of course KDE wins by allowing to configure it.
