Dear Homo,
Recently, someone told us you are now profitable. Keep fighting for your rights, and we’ll be there, when it’s over, to steal credit for any victory.
Sincerely,
Anycorp ^TM^
I get your feeling but Gnome is not a corpo, it’s an open source project
Yea really it’s directed at Any.org also.
*Gnomo
GNOME is not a corporation. And second, in case you haven’t noticed, we’re not exactly popular nowadays. GNOME is actually filled with LGBTQ people who are making and running this project.
In the times we’re going through right now, this is not just a rainbow capitalism move, this is a statement of actual support. Especially the fact that they are keeping the trans colors in, despite the fact that right now trans people are getting fucked over left and right.
Also, LGBTQ is not just… homos. What?
Lol okay, I thought it was clear that my post was just japes and jabs. Sorry if it legitimately offended.
It’s ok. Sorry if I sounded too aggressive.
I’m still sticking with KDE.
I have tried KDE several times, and can’t bring myself to like it.
To each their own.
Christ, it’s like Linux distros are about choice!
I know, right? 🙂
I’m split, I love kde’s features and customization, but GNOME’s workflow is amazing. I currently use one on my pc and one on my laptop.
I like kde features and stuff.
But i love gnomes ux and ui
Try Cinnamon, best of both worlds.

Now I get where they is LGBTQ wallpapers in GNOME now
Wherever you stand on the reason for this change, you can’t deny that these themes are gorgeous.
Links but no screenshots, insert joke about Gnome’s UX.
Yea some screenshots would be nice :/

Ah, a shame it’s just wall papers, but pride-d looks nice.
Thanks!

Damn, they look absolutely horrible
Alright, peeps. Some of you are asking for screenshots, so here are some screenshots on a standard 16:9 1080p display!

I feel like that doesn’t count as a theme
the title of this post is misleading. I was hoping for more, but the article also never mentions theme.
To be fair, nowhere on the actual page does the GNOME team talks about it being a theme. :)
My brain sees theme and wallpaper interchangeably. Sorry, fixed it.
