I&amp;#x27;ve been using ubuntu on and off as my personal system for the past 15 years, it sure beats windows in many respects (typing this on MacOS). But I&amp;#x27;m just too old to be excited by UI features that should&amp;#x27;ve been here long ago and that were the standard in the software of the late 90s and early 2000s. There has also been a vocal part of the community defending the lack of thumbnails in the file picker, so this whole story has a bitter taste to it.
One more thing, it feels like open source systems and UIs are developing at a glacial pace these days, either the tools used to develop open source software are sub-par or maybe there is a lack of people working on it and effort put into it. So glacial that in the age of AI, a grid view is somehow a notable feature. There seems to be less to be excited about these days and I have given up expecting great things.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>GNOME 44</title><url>https://foundation.gnome.org/2023/03/22/introducing-gnome-44/</url></story>
