From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I wish I liked KDE. I even tried playing around with LXQT.

Currently I'm on Elementary OS just because of the simplicity and polish. Even though it's based on GTK. I'd like if someone created a gnome-like UI based on QT. One that was designed to be both polished and accessible.

I might try and make it myself, can't be hard, right? :-D

so cutefish? it's more mac-like than GNOME like, but it's kind of a elementaryOS but with Qt instead of GTK

Yes hopefully Cutefish will get there. Right now it's pretty basic. Seems like it was designed for tablets or something, but I do like it.
