It looks nice, but I've heard the uniform UI design only extends to their chosen apps, and outside of that it looks not so nice.

that's gotta be worth at least a line on the linux screenshot bingo card

- huge clock
- in the middle of the screen
- a shell
- with a transparent background
- random UI elements copied from osx
- ram usage display because that's a thing people in 2015 care about

i installed cinnamon and classic gnome and gnome flashback, none of them were much good. sadly they are close to being good but for the most part do not conform to the traditional linux style of customisation. though i guess i could compile from source to fix it.

anyway i have realised that windows 10 is actually teh best UI but for linux it is still mint xfce


real talk teh ideal start menu is a smallish popup with a search bar and list of apps. and teh window buttons have to be on the right. how hard is that to do.
