Armageddongnome-shell you mean ?00:17
zouzounever used it before00:17
zouzouyeah00:17
Armageddonreviews are incorrect00:17
Armageddonhow can gnome-shell of the Gnome project which started before Unity be close to unity ?00:17
Armageddonit would probably be the other way around wouldn't it ? ;)00:17
zouzouPeople who didn't like to use Unity in 11.04 could easily switch to Gnome, which is of course far more flexible and user-friendly than Unity. So why they decided to throw it all away and come out with this awful interface is beyond me. The first thing you'll notice when you open the activities menu is it's a horrible jerky mess. It takes about ten seconds to open the applications menu, not to mention there's no way to customise the (now only) panel on t00:18
zouzouhe desktop. Not only that, there's no minimise buttons on the window and no taskbar! You have to go into the activities menu and click on the other window in order to switch. How counter-intuitive, and to be honest I find it a step backwards in innovation. The "Gnome Classic" login option is not real gnome classic either - it's just a cheap imitation which doesn't work half as well. There's still only one panel available and it is slow and clunky. Oh, a00:18
zouzound did I mention that you can't use Compiz with gnome 3? So now, the window management is slow and clunky.00:18
zouzouI hate this abysmal abomination of a user interface, and to be honest, I'd rather use Windows Vista. Now I'm looking for how to downgrade to 11.04, as I wouldn't be able to bear using this on a daily basis. Good job, Canonical.00:18
zouzouthat's one review00:18
Armageddonsimply because people are thinking Ubuntu moved to Gnome 300:18
Armageddon:/00:20
