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.

For one, the detailed view mode. I have tried it in Dolphin and Mint's FE, don't remember if Nautilus has one, but they all try to appear like this oversimplified look. There is so much padding and dead space I want it to be compact and to the point.
Second, the side bar is just, sad.
Overall I don't like the design I guess? They all feel very... apple like? Trying to be simple but in the process becoming wayyy too simple.
