And as an added benefit, Arch users are also in a position to enjoy the latest in software packages. My favorite part being the pacman package management and Arch’s User Repository (AUR).
In the past I have enjoyed Arch and various Arch-like distributions.
#UBUNTU MATE FULL#
XFCE started off as my go-to lightweight desktop preference, while keeping Gnome 3 around on another machine because it was fun to use.Īfter a lot of recent thought and reflection, I have decided to commit full time to a “no frills” desktop environment. I went from wanting a fancy, slick GUI desktop over to leaning with a lighter weight desktop. My own desktop needs, reflecting on the ideas above, have also evolved. Others still, prefer a desktop experience that provides a simple, hassle free interface. Some individuals prefer to have a desktop experience that is rich, full of nice effects and looks great. Today, however, our need for a desktop environment is more varied. Back then, these desktop environments were designed mostly to provide a usable X environment from which to use Linux compatible applications. When I first came to Linux, I gravitated to KDE and then later on, early GNOME. In this article, I’ll explain why I decided to make the switch to the MATE desktop and the reason behind using an Ubuntu base. Finding the right desktop can be a deeply personal experience.
