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.

You just install the extension manager or use a web browser. It probably could use more documentation but I also understand that gnome is cautious about user generated content
Yeah, but how will a beginner user know to install extension manager? I didn't. There's no prompt to install it.
For newcomers it just seems like a very basic ui with no configuration options whatsoever. Very frustrating.
It has just as much customization as Windows or Mac OS out of the box. I think the general idea is to not complicate the desktop which I like as I do not do much in the way of customization anyway.
