I wanted to take a moment and talk about Linux UX because, let’s face it… it sucks.
Actually, it’s worse than that. Much of Linux’s UX is technically correct and that makes it objectively wrong.
No. I don’t want Linux to be more Windows-like. But I do want the most common Linux desktops to behave in a way that PC-literate folks can wrap their mind around — and do so from minute zero
What is this guy on about? Windows has TWO places for settings and neither are to parity of each other. Linux does not have that. Gnome and KDE actually provide really nice settings.
I’m on Manjaro, and it actually does have two places for settings. The KDE settings menu is usually the place to go, but Manjaro’s settings menu is where you can do a few obscure things like installing different kernel versions.
This might just be a Manjaro thing though as I haven’t seen this on other distros, and Control Panel does way more than it should really on Windows with how long the Settings app has been around.
At least on Linux if you dont want it that way you can remove it, depending on the distro. Control Panel and Settings are there seemingly forever in Windows.
