Re: Good read from a new GNOME user



Hi Britt,

Thanks for posting this to the mailing list. I'll summarise the raised
points quickly here for everyone's convenience:

1. The desktop does nothing. There is no functionality other than on
the top bar. Specifically: There is no dash/dock.

2. The status bar does very little. Specifically: Indicators like wi-fi 
are hidden inside sub-menus.

2a. Connecting to wi-fi is too many steps.

2b. No battery percentage on status bar.

2c. No app indicators.

2d. No suspend button.

3a. It is difficult to reach the app drawer.

3b. Application names are cut off.

3c. Folders in the app drawer aren't customisable.

4. Unnecessary notifications (e.g., "Application is ready")

5a. Can't create file by right-clicking in Nautilus.

5b. Icons in Nautilus are confusing.

5c. Same icons for different file types.

5d. The file picker isn't very good.

5e. Bookmarking folders isn't discoverable.

6. Evince has no tabs.

7. Two photo apps (eog, Photos)

8a. Some settings are undiscoverable. Specifically: Connecting to a
hidden network is hidden behind three dots.

8b. Difficult to set custom wallpaper.

8c. GNOME Tweaks shouldn't exist.

9. GNOME Software doesn't show change logs.

I took some liberties here and there in summarising these points, but I
hope that they are useful.

Kindly,
Carmen
