I’ve dabbled with Linux over the years, first with Ubuntu in the early 2010s, then Elementary OS when that dropped, and a few years ago I really enjoyed how customizable the gui was with Xubuntu. I was able to make it look just like WIndows 2000 which was really cool.

Which current distro has the best GUI, in your opinion? I find modern Ubuntu to feel a little basic and cheap. I guess I don’t really like modern Gnome. I’m currently using Windows 10 LTSC which is probably the best possible version of Windows, but I’d jump to linux if I could find a distro with a gui that feels at least as polished and feature rich as Windows 10 LTSC.

    I’m not sure if it was on purpose or they just didn’t implement it to the correct spec.

    The behaviour I want is this: I have say A and B on a desktop split into half vertically. Then I press a key and they become tabbed. I have A on one half and B and C on the other half split horizontally, then pressing a key makes B and C tabbed.

    What happens in hyprland is this: you select a given window to be a tab parent. Then you can open an new window to make the two tabbed. However if you switch from tabbed to non tabbed, you can’t go back with a key combo. You need to repeat the whole process.

    It’s such a small thing but has made hyprland kind of weird for me.
