Community rules (click to expand)
1. Follow the site-wide rules
- Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
2. Be civil
- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
- These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of
sudo in Windows.
- No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

I'm sure you could make it look like whatever your head meat blob can come up with, but eventually you're five hours deep in a rabbit hole nobody has ever gone down and uncovering software bugs that god himself didn't know about, just trying to make the damn thing usable.
On GNOME, I don't have to worry about any of that - the OOTB experience is just fine. For anyone.
I meant just changing the icon pack and panel theme which is not that difficult and some people may be fine with the default. Not saying gnome or kde are worse, just that xfce is not as bad as you think it is :)
I don't know, that was my experience on KDE. I got it to behave and look the way I wanted, but it was slow, buggy, and prone to crashing. I've never gone near anything "customizable" since.
