        Having to create .desktop files in god knows where for me to be able to right click -> “open with” my program of choice sure pushed me away

        I don’t even know what they were thinking not letting you beowse for any executable file on disk

          Yeah same. There are some types of text file where gedit doesn’t even appear as an option. Like sometimes I don’t want to open .xml files in the browser.

          I was able to set VScode for .xml files but not gedit. It’s not a huge deal but that one thing makes gnome feel like immature software.

      I used GNOME for close to 20 years, but finally dropped it with the release 40. I’ve had enough of them breaking features.

      By that time KDE finally stabilized and it does everything I want, my way.
