Apple's Liquid Glass is prep work for AR interfaces, not just a design refresh

Lmfao. Despite people constantly whining about it, KDE is now stable, has good defaults, and it actually looks like Windows. It's not an accident that Steam Deck uses it.

The worst part about all of those DEs is that there's more than one. Even one OS might switch its default DE, like Ubuntu did 3? times. Just settle on one, I don't even care which. Gnome2 was fine.

It won't ever fully settle, because Linux users like tinkering by their nature. But in the mainstream, it's kinda already settled on the Gnome-KDE duopoly

For now. There's also the Xorg vs Wayland thing.

If I remember correctly, Wayland actually makes it harder to have more DEs/WMs because each must implement its own Wayland compositor
