  • In this lengthy video, I go over some of the changes I would make with Ubuntu (with GNOME) if I were using it as my daily driver. I don't make drastic changes like swapping out the desktop environment. I just tweak some of the things that are already there.
    NOTE:
    I did a similar video on Linux Mint Cinnamon last year, so checkout that video as well.

    Great content DT. I personally can use just about any DE and be at home with it but I have always liked Gnome due to it's great keybindings. I prefer to use keybindings as much as I can but I don't mind overlapping windows since there is always Expose.
    Interestingly, I had been using i3wm-gaps for quite extensibly but went back to a DE until trying bspwm and wow it is so much more natural to me than i3 ever was. I especially like the fact you move the content inside the window instead of moving the window causing a disruption to my layout which drove me mad in i3.

    What's wrong with ctrl + D for close window, since you use that to close terminals? Seems to work fine. [Edit from Future Scott: OK, bad idea - when I go to bookmark in browser, it closes browser.]
    Along the same lines, there is a "Launch web browser" keybinding that comes disabled. Binding to that did NASTY things to firefox next time I launched it - wouldn't paint entire window, but painted as 2 separate windows with garbage left over from last window closed. Poked around until I found where the menus were, then was somehow able to click on something that coalesced the separate windows into 1 window that actually was rendered properly. Went back and disabled "Launch web browser" and used yours, whew. I have a looooot of tabs, so maybe that impacted it.
    Added the path to my data drive to the nautilus command so super + F now opens the drive I usually use rather than having to steer into it.

    Regarding application key bindings, the Super (Windows) key plus a number corresponds with the icons you have pinned on the dock. So if Firefox is the top icon, then Super+1 will launch it. Super+2 would launch whatever is below that, and so on. So when you set up your favourite apps in the dock, it also associates those key bindings.

  • @sarthalion

    Great videos DT, I enjoy watching them! Here's what I think:
    Most of the so called "advanced" Linux users use Ubuntu or something like Fedora because with those you don't need to spend time tinkering with the operating system. Instead you can spend the time developing drivers for embedded devices and whatnot. I think it's a misconception that advanced users somehow configure their desktops more than new users. I think it's almost the other way around. After 15 years of Linux I can't bother playing with themes and different desktop environments or window managers. Whatever is there by default and works is usually fine. However I do spend some time configuring Emacs sometimes.

      Yup. I'm convinced that most people that scream at the top of their lungs that a mouse is bad and they should keyboard everything just want to feel like a "hackerman". Your life is not going to change drastically by taking 2 seconds longer to click something once in a while. The time I have seen actual keyboard only be useful in extremely high level banking and trading. Those people are machines with their excel and application shortcuts. Opening like 8 terminals with a key combination is not impressive. It is not the dividing line between being a power user or a noob.

I have multiple computers in my studio, most of them are Macs, but I also have a couple of nice Ubuntu computers. Rather than customising Ubuntu, I am really interested in learning how best to use those Ubuntu machines with my Macs in a production/work context. For example, transferring files, sharing a mouse and keyboard, ensuring formats are universal, trying to find cross-platform programmes (e.g. DaVinci resolve) and understanding the difference between them, finding an Ubuntu equivalent of Apple AirDrop, etc. etc. Love your videos. Regards from South Australia. Steve.

    One important thing that you could have shown is changing the tab names for the different shells one might open in the same terminal window. By default, they show the active directory in the shell. Changing the tab name requires one to change the ~/.bashrc.

    There is absolutely nothing wrong with Ubuntu, and it has an added advantage of being the "default Linux distribution" which is really important if you need to run some commercial Linux software which only gives you a choice between Ubuntu and Red Hat. Also many dev teams standardise on Ubuntu because it is 100% fuss free.

    • @SasiGoteti
      @SasiGoteti 3 роки тому

      I would say barrier for entry to linux mint is very low compared to arch or Gentoo or linux from scratch. This what people mean by noob friendly vs power users..
      Those distros (mint) make people get into linux faster and get things done(do work) compared to installing exact things you need so system performance is optimised.
      Major problems I faced while shift to linux is audio, wifi, nvidia drivers mint takes care of those for you compared to rest where you need to do some digging.

    Sorry for the newbie question but can anyone tell me what key is the Super key? I have control alt shift, the litle windows logo key, Fn (function) key since Im in a laptop, tab caps lock
    At first I thought you were calling super to the shift key but then you say super shift for some shortcut, so I go confused.
    Is the windows key the one you call super? The one with the windows logo?
    And again sorry if it sounds like a stupid question, but Im so used to windows that I have no idea of what you talking about by super
    Btw your channel is helping me a lot in the lockup for a better distro to use, since I tryed a couple of them, but in some of my cheap laptops I always have the same problem, or the audio doesn't work on one of them or the bluetooth and for example in my litle detachable HP laptop/tablet, I never manage to get the battery to work, to recharge, I need to recharge it with the computer off if I have linux on it, and then use it until the battery dies even if Im connected to the main current, it doesnt recharge...
    But im still trying to make it work with linux somehow, since windows is kind of heavy for it, and Im into digging into linux
    I used ubunto, mint, debian, arch, and couple more distros already, the only ones who I kind of enjoyed was 1st mint, 2debian, 3ubunto, but ubunto is kind of heavy to, so I rather have windows then ubunto since windows is easier to work with for me
