gnome style is too rounded for me hurts my eyes when i see it

at least kde has some ui density, gtk5/6 is atrocious on lowres displays

i just can't stand gnome anymore, it was my favorite for a long time too. KDE is fine but I fucking hate Dolphin. I'm into Cosmic right now but I'm not sure I like the file manager

I prefer kiki but you know, whatever...

It actually hurt me a little how they made a perfectly wellade GTK app into a QT mess for no reason whatsoever. But oh well, I don't maintain it and it's not my place to complain much about it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Like it still remains usable

KDE's Kiki feels offended

I'd be fine with it, but I had to pin the flatpak to an old release for now, because the redesign fucked up the migration, deleted all my presets and also caused issues with voice chat apps not getting any audio input. The new UI is also unquestionably a downgrade and less accessible when it comes to setting slider values, but I hope that can be fixed with time. I certainly don't blame FOSS devs for their work.

Btw. seeing some of the comments in here: is it the fate of all Linux shitposting forums to be filled with hardliners who really care what software you install on you Linux system? Let me use my GTK apps in peace. I don't need opinions on UI cleanliness and density from people who don't even use easyeffects, because my god, is it a mess currently.

I'm just glad the fallback preset setting finally exists. Means I can tune my laptop speakers but default to a "clean" empty preset for any other device. Dev said that the feature wasn't gonna happen until the Qt version was the main version. Under the GTK version I had to manually add an entry for every new audio device

Great questions for those distro chooser surveys...

I like how dolphin can do checksums in the GUI
