i installed ubuntu unity today and honestly i REALLY fuck w it. like it's not perfect but holy FUCK i miss unity being a desktop so much, and it's really capable (obviously because unity was Peak) but i'm just reeling from how modern it still is. it's not perfect, i couldn't get the on-screen keyboard to work on login yet, but come october i bet this thing is gonna fucking SLAP. that, and seeing it paired with my old school 2009 primo active digitizer art workstation laptop just makes me feel warm on the inside it makes me want to manufacture a new battery for it specifically to use it more often. it's so good.

very much one of my favorite qualities of Ubuntu, it was once VERY coherent aesthetically and Simply Worked while it looking really good, with its unique top bar menu integration and all the clever ways they implemented space saving like that for widescreen, but now it just feels less novel, less interesting, and a lot less polished with that GNOME jank slathered over everything (because, well, it is just GNOME now basically....)
not to say this too isn't a little jank, but i can forgive the undead for behaving a bit out-of-joint :P
