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?
This is a fork of Mate, right?
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...
The clipboard actually works in Gnome so it's more useful I guess
If, by "actually works", you mean it modifies what's pasted from what was marked, trying to second-guess the user like in Microsoft Windows' clipboard, yes, I suppose you are right.
However, I kind of like not getting presentation but just raw text when I copy. I don't want the fonts. I don't want artificial line breaks from the presentation. I don't want tabs adjusted so they align. And if I copy an "ø", I don't want it to be translated to unicode.
