From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Bit confused about the question, but assuming you mean Windows.. it looks nothing like it.

It just looks like GNOME2, lol.

If I hide the black strip of panels and put default wallpaper of win 11 Will it look atleast like window

[–] curioushom@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

The file browser looks like windows. But the top bar is very Mac like, maybe if you put a start menu it would help. But to get a windows feel, you'll need the start menu, application window bars, and the status info all at the bottom (default windows).

Cinnamon is a much more Windows look and feel DE.

Win as win or lose? Like 7.5/10.

Win as in Windows? Havent used 11, but id give it 'very unlike windows 10'

I never liked two panel. Back when Gnome 2 was around I would always combine them into one bar at the bottom. Seems like wasted vertical space to have two when one can do the same stuff.

Not really a point to be made, just a preference.

So… for the top menu bar, you copied macOS, complete with an Apple logo. Then, for file explorer, you is copied Windows 10/11. Everything else if your generic Linux distro. What are you trying to accomplish?

My analysis: OP is too dangerous to be left alive.

Here is the Apple logo, for those who missed it:

Gross, it looks like Windows had a baby with Gnome

[–] eugenia@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Not a bad DE, but nearly unmaintained lately. The development of it has been crawling.

Don't you mean from 1 to 11? (And 3 is not a valid option.) Sorry, I saw an opening for a stupid joke and had to jump.
