Which DE Are You Running - The 2014 Edition

So basically, this as an update to the existing poll, just to make it more current.

It’s may 2014, openSUSE 13.1 is out, and which DE are you running?

No edit option, so I have to add a footnote here:

I made the poll close in 150ish days, so after that, when apx. new openSUSE version is released, we may inspect and repeat the topic, to see relevant results.

Have a lot of fun.

I will try.

Who are the addressees of this. As a system manager I maintain systems with and without DEs installed. Also where they are installed, I do not realy know what the users use.

You as an individual user. You, of course, are not supposed to know what each and every single person you’re administering runs on their geeko. Thanks for your vote btw :slight_smile:

Hi
Seven laptops and four desktops, mix of SLED, SLES, openSUSE and Solaris, three users all systems run the GNOME Desktop…

You are welcome, but I didn’t lol!

Matbe I wait for tomorrow, because it will then again say

Which DE Are You Using in openSUSE Today?

So I can postpone until there comes a day where I use a DE that is political correct to vote for.

Of course, that (the part of your comment I marked in red) is likely to change on a daily – or at least, regular – basis.rotfl!

No need for overcomplication. The point of this poll is just to see if the preferences of openSUSE users changed over time, when KDE was in an absolute lead.

I doubt it - not with openSUSE desktop users IMHO.

Gnome user here - laptop, workstation (+ 1x server headless) + 1x netbook with i3/Window Maker.

I like the multiple choice of voting.

3X13.1 KDE and 1x13.1 LXDE for my physical PC’s. In my WM’s its a mix with what ever the dist comes with (Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Kali etc).

I use a DE that is political correct to vote for
I thought that the forum rules did not like: “-or political comment is not allowed”

With a spark in my eye yes.

Sorry to bring this up here, as an non-native English speaker I always wondering about what IMHO stands for. I have seen several definitions on the net like:

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/IMHO

or

http://www.acronymfinder.com/IMHO.html etc.

The nearest I can figure out is: “In my holy/honest/humble opinion.”. In my native language that is a large differences between. Yes I know that the forum is ~English but still why all this abbreviations? Doesn’t make it any easier for newcomers/non English speakers.

Please feel free and remove my post if you like. It was written whit a :sarcastic: tone.

Hi
FWIW, IMHO is, In my honest/humble opinion, but YMMV. :wink:

OK! Hehe. SPTS (Sällan pinkar en trähäst i Sahara). Miles? En gammal definition som lever kvar i bla GB, US.

Google översättning finns alltid till hands.

(Google translation is always there) lol!.

Regards

Only negative experience with KDE. Crashed during the first day after installation.
No such problems with my beloved Gnome 3.10/3.12

I have always taken it to mean “in my humble opinion”, which also accounts for the times when someone says IMNSHO = “In my not so humble opinion”. :\

I must admit, I have never had Gnome crash on me, either.

… but, perhaps that is because I never use it.

English is not my first language either, but I have learnt to understand
and use several of such abbreviations. There is an Internet jargon site
somewhere which explains them when in doubt.

Or you could, for example, install the command “wtf”. Yes, that word. It
was part of oss repo years ago, but it has got hidden a bit. See how it
works:


cer@minas-tirith:~> wtf IMHO
IMHO: in my humble opinion
cer@minas-tirith:~>

There are many words with special meanings in Internet, and English is
specially rich on them. For example, look up “Godwin’s Law” - not a
word, but a tradition or culture thing.

HTH :wink:

Thanks for the tip of wtf. Didn’t find it. Never mind. I manage, -some others may not. Yes I know that the English is rich on them.

Getting to old of pick up “slang” maybe. As Malcolmlewis wrote: YMMV (YKMMV) witch could mean two different things translated to… Old/depend on the person. You don’t want to know what a search on HTH came up whit on Google lol!. I have been running English sins 1998 on my OS. Sometimes with Swedish locale’s settings on top.

Use the build service search feature. It is on a home repo.

Just looked: first two are about health services. The third is from the
urban dictionary, and I do not agree with what it appears to say.
