      Good news for those of us building out a new Linux based company.

      That, I believe, calls for a new thread?

                Can’t wait to see what improvements Red Hat made with Linux VM guests on Hyper-V.

                    It depends if you were ever interested in Gnome at all.

                      My main beef with Gnome is that without an extra tool package, files and directories that you place in the /home/whateverUser/Desktop directory don't actually appear on the desktop. It's been a while since I've given Gnome a chance (notwithstanding a recent thread), so maybe my gripe is no longer valid.

                        I love that part. I never have anything on my desktop. I use the activities overview to get everything.

                          I believe Gnome Tweak has a option to enable Desktop. But it was never an issue for me because I dislike anything on there except for wallpaper.

                          I know with Elementary OS, they removed Desktop folder.

                            Yeah, my gripe isn't a functional one. It's more of an aesthetic gripe: "why have that folder if it doesn't make stuff appear on the GUI's desktop?"

                              I think it's just carried over from user-dirs.defaults. There might be a reason why it's still there though.

                              You could just comment it out from that config if you don't want new users to have it. And removing it/commenting it out of ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs should get rid of it for you.

                                Because in Fedora for example allows you to log in using Gnome classic.
