gollark: The attempts to make it linuxy are either giant complex non-backward-compatible things nobody uses, or mostly irrelevant shiny details about Linux nobody really needs.
gollark: Personally, I suspect the thought process is something like:- "Hmm, CC does not look like [Windows/MacOS/whatever the user was brought up on and uses lots]"- "I must make it like this! This is an obvious usability improvement."- "Clearly nobody has thought of this already or, as it's obviously better, it would be used everywhere."
gollark: And some bundled programs, primarily other people's.
gollark: The majority of "OS"es are glorified startup screens maybe with a GUI or something. This is *not useful*.
