    Well back when I really unaware of what linux was, I saw like Ubuntu that my friend showed on his laptop. I loved the aesthetic then. It was 16 version of Ubuntu probably. Gnome with that orange -ish red look blew my mind at the time. I didn't know desktops can be made to look like that.

    Ever since I have a soft spot for it. Of course I used more DEs. I used kde or xfce. Even wms like bspwm or ice. Gnome seemed slow on my laptop back then but that was cause its a 4gb ram laptop and I was dual booting. I have recently moved to debian and I chose gnome variant. It feels fine and not slow. But I have yet to test more.

    Gnome is very simple to set up. It does use ram but if you have laptop with larger ram these days I think its fine.

    Personally I like gnome's dock. I have used other wm's where I set up polybar and dock. I still like gnome.

    Same here. Read some rand in school cause my father likes it and wanted to impress him. I just didn't care for her books as time went on. Of course after developing a decent political framework I came to realize how dumb those ideas and the books are.
