After dabbling around a bit with i3wm, Hyprland, KDE and going through r/unixporn , there is one trend I have noticed.

Most rices / customizations tend to look like GNOME.

The top bar, the middle app menu, the windows.

It is like carcinisation but this time for desktops. Just rice it enough and it will end up looking like GNOME.

Is the current design of GNOME the pinnacle of desktop design? Everything just feels super intuitive.
