I'm not referring to all of you here who use desktop Linux for various reasons but I mean the whole concept of desktop Linux seems to be going nowhere. There used to be a time when desktop Linux was bleeding edge and could do things that neither Windows nor Mac could even dream of doing, and improvements that actually help productivity.
Win + Mac seem to have taken the most usable parts of desktop Linux and adopted in their own implementations for desktop. DEs seem to have stagnated to particular metaphors which are arguably inferior to either Win or Mac.
When will we get honest innovation on desktop Linux again?
You can't improve things indefinitely. Not unless you change the whole way we interact with something like a desktop.
Unless freetards somehow started developing eye-tracking software and registering hand gestures in the air and shit, where do we go from at this point? Back to that cube in your picture?
I suppose Linux could be better when it comes to touchscreens.

Wow compiz-fusion was cancer
Xavier Turner
yeah right windows and mac have been becoming worse for 10 years now
Jaxon Cook
ca 2007, 3d acceleration, multiple desktops, "Mission Control/Expose", snap really made Linux a cut above Windows and Mac.
Cameron Torres
Wow, how can I get that cube?

Are you ok, user? Should I call a doctor?

>Is desktop Linux dead? Pretty much yeah

Staying in the right place ( the one where users are free) beats the competition as far as I'm concerned. Since I started running GNU/Linux, Microsoft have turned my Windows installation into a buggy, adware and spyware infested wreck and Apple have continued their gradual turning of OS X into an iOS-like prison.

The next step could be A DE fully in VR, but with how little support there is now for VR on Linux that could be a long way away.
Dylan Lee
>GNOME >good for touchscreens True in most areas, which makes it even more confusing that they are so reluctant to put a touch-friendly view in their file picker.
