Open Source is all about choice. If you feel a project is devoting too 
much effort to adding new features and not enough to fixing bugs in the 
existing features, there’s nothing stopping you from doing something about 
it.

In the proprietary world, you have to suck up whatever they put in front 
of you.

In the Free Software world, we continue to be free to exercise a choice.

I use Linux Mint with Cinnamon-Flavour. After also trying/using
KDE-environments I opted for GNOME and I prefer Mint a lot over Ubuntu
which was my mainstay for years. I dislike the orange theme and some
other things with Ubuntu.

Linux is just my fallback OS should Apple do the wrong things like CISAM
or other funny stuff.

Is it really impossible to change the GNOME theme in Ubuntu? And, does
the normal Ubuntu really only offer GNOME?

If one knows what one is doing, it is possible to install *ANY* desktop 
environment on *ANY* Linux distro.  Note that this has nothing to do with 
whatever the distro "offers".  Yes, in some cases it might require a lot of 
fun groveling with apt to install what needs to be installed and purging 
what is not needed / wanted.  When doing a cold fresh install on a machine for 
my own use, *I* generally install a system with no desktop environment, and 
build things up from there.  This is a simplier way to get a desktop 
environment that I can use, without having to wade through something unusable 
(by me).

Yeah, I've taken to doing this as well; even the more sensible distros
inevitably have a "desktop" meta-package that drags in just *piles* of
stuff I'll never use, half of which are just the the $FLAVOR house-
brand versions of the same things. Wish they'd separate out just a
"core X" package that'd save you the trouble the way the BSDs do.

They do. Just trace down the “apt-cache depends” graph and you’ll find out 
what the core component packages are.

I mean, yes, you *can* do that; it'd be nice not to *have* to.

That’s why it’s separated out: so that you can install just the bits that 
you need.

Technically, yes. There are 'flavors' of Ubuntu like Kubuntu, Lubuntu, 
Xbuntu, Ubuntu Unity, and so forth. Unlike Fedora spins, they are 
different communities. For example

https://lubuntu.me/


At one time I had installed Ubuntu and didn't really like the GNOME 
experience so I installed the KDE desktop. It worked, sort of, but was 
fragile with some odd behavior as GNOME and KDE overlapped. I wouldn't 
recommend it. If you want a KDE experience install Kubuntu.

Since I am one of the "none of the above" -- eg none of the disto supplied 
desktop suit me, when I do fresh installs, I also install without any desktop 
environment at all, and then manually install the bits an pieces needed to 
create the desktop environment I use.  No weird issues with overlaping 
packages.

Yes. That was my experience also back in the day.

Learn something every day -- it really is related to yerba mate. Not my 
favorite caffeine source but in a pinch it will do. A little too much 
yerba taste.

I don’t think it does. The different flavours are really just different 
choices of default installations.

I remember installing “normal” Ubuntu on my Asus Eee 701 (yes, it was a 
long time ago), and discovering I should have chosen Kubuntu. Adding the 
KDE Plasma option was as easy as “apt-get install kubuntu-desktop”.

And still Jörg says that he stopped using Ubuntu because he "didn't
liek the orange". I wonder why he didn't just change the theme or the
entire Desktop if he was fine with Ubuntu otherwise?

So it is just like Debian, just louder in its Marketing of the
different Desktops?

   I dumped Ubuntu YEARS ago ... because it just
   went totally, pointlessly, shit on the Debian
   norms AND started pushing - hard to prevent -
   proprietary web-storage schemes and stuff.

   In short, Canonical became a BUSINESS - not Linux.

   I'll stick to MX and Manjaro for now.

   Alas Deb seems to have hired a lot of Canonical
   rejects, fucked itself up. Horrible !

   MAY wind up pure Fedora or Arch or something in
   the next few years ......

   HAVE been looking hard at the BSDs .......

There is this continual assumption that Free Software has to operate just

assumption.
