    1. YEAH true I can see plugins being used on something like Debian.

    2. Oh that’s why gnome tweaks got read of gtk theming I saw a forum post saying gnome devs don’t want customization especially they have this page: https://stopthemingmy.app/

      I don’t want customization. The biggest users of gnome is probably enterprise Linux. In the enterprise or business space you want reliability and predictably.

        Ok that would make sense why Most Enterprise oriented distros only ship Gnome

          Funny enough Xfce4 is also commonly used as well.

          Both gnome and xfce4 has kiosk modes and settings which allows an admin to lock the system down. Xfce4 tends to be a little more favored since it is easier to make it look like Windows.

          Of course it depends on the deployment and company. Almost everyone is going to be on Windows since it is the easiest to manage from a desktop perspective. Like it or not group policy is pretty hard to compete with. I do think Wayland and XDG desktop portals will definitely help make Linux a more appealing option but at the end of the day business just want something standard and supported.
