This is pretty open ended, and I’m not sure “digital tool” is really what I should call it honestly. But basically, I’m putting together a big list of programs, applications, websites and the like that I find useful or helpful in some way, that I think could be beneficial to others.

So far my list consists of things like localsend, alternativeto.net, Microsoft powertoys, does the dog die, etc. Pretty varied list, some very niche some very general purpose, but just those kind of things if that makes sense?

I’m looking for some more to add, so what do you have to contribute?

    Thank you. What did you dislike in Cinnamon what you felt GNOME was doing way better?

    We’re basically stuck using GNOME at work due to it having the only proper Wayland-enabled multi user RDP session host. I don’t really like its workflows, window management and settings structure… The design is pretty nice, but that’s not my priority.

      The polish thing again. This was years ago when GNOME 3 was a thing. I adapted fine to it. Cinnamon was mandated as an attempt to continue with the traditional GNOME 2 paradigms. I tried and I was immediately repelled by the lack of polish. I’ve been doing UIs for ages by that point and I had gotten pretty sensitive to UI issues. I immediately put GNOME back even though I had to support it myself. I was happy to and it was easy.
