GNOME 3.20 Officially Released (softpedia.com)
prisoninmate writes: After yet another six months of hard work, the highly anticipated GNOME 3.20 desktop environment for GNU/Linux operating systems has been officially released on March 23, 2016. Release highlights include support for operating system upgrades via GNOME Software, middle-click paste, kinetic scrolling, drag-and-drop support for Wayland, keyboard shortcuts and gestures overlay for most of the core apps, XDG-Apps technology for installing multiple versions of an app, and much more goodies.
Is it as good as Gnome 2 yet?
I wonder, have they discovered in gnome 3.x that real people need to open real applications on the same screen?

Or on multiple screens, for that matter.
Or run the desktop environment in a window on a bigger screen (e.g. a VM).
Relying on pointing devices not going past the edge of the screen takes a certain kind of talent.

You could always press the Super key as an alternative to the hot corner. Or you could install one of the many extensions https://extensions.gnome.org/ that gives you an alternative way to launch applications. Neither of these things would take as much time out of your day as your slightly odd /. post.
Why should the lack of corners on your virtual machine prevent me from having access to useful features?
Pick up a book. Any book will do so long as it's been professionally published. Look at the white space around the text, and reflect on why the publisher made you purchase all of that expensive blank paper.
Books have spines. Which combined with centering text accounts for most of the white space. The rest makes it possible to hold the book and turn pages without obscuring the text.
And there's still like 90-95% text and only 5-10% white space. At least in the books I read. Yours may have a way lower text ratio, which might not say so much about the book...
If you liked KDE3 you should look at Trinity DE

Going by windows, most people don't want that, they want full copies. I like what you want most of the time as well but I have to admit in some instances it's nice to get everything.
In Windows, I have to have a notepad2 window open at all times, so I can paste into it, fix formatting, and copy again, so I can paste just text. Because that's almost always what I want.
You and the rest of the world. There's not much more irritating than copying a spelling, for instance - because I can't spell good - from a web search, only to have the pointless formatting come with it. I think, to be honest, that almost 90% of the time, pasting the text only is the right thing to do.
