Mate Desktop 1.24

Super grateful for this project, I use it every day on all my computers.

Maybe it's the age talking, but to me it feels like Gnome2/MATE is the peak of the desktop paradigm. Also Windows XP/7, in terms of UI/X.

People took the desktop for what it was and tried to make the most of it.

Nowadays most DEs, including Windows feel like they are made for a phone or a tablet.

I'm honestly really happy with GnomeShell once I install the extensions "dash to dock" and "workspace matrix".

Until you apt-get update and they break :)
