Well, if this is true I'm not surprised. Tablets are annoying to use.

I love the idea of tablets

Maybe it depends on where? Sales are often geography and culture dependant. I've seen very few tablets but tons of mobiles (Android & iPhone) and laptops. I don't see many tablets around here.

If you see carefully most of them are not phones but they are Phablets..

But I prefer 2 in 1s

I think their success came from the fact that they had bigger screens than phone but were cheaper than laptops.

I think it's more of an apple thing

Idk what it's in favor of, I think it's chromebooks and 2 in 1s and big phones

Low end laptops and tablets with a keyboard imo

guys, can someone quickly tell me the output of: gnome-shell —version

Only if we are using your laptop... what do you want to know exactly?

I was thinking about traditional laptops

a shitload of themes broke (decorations, wm compositor). the last time I checked GTK+ were working fine.

I agree

I'm looking for compatible themes, specially OSX breed.

In over a year roaming in England I only saw two iPads so far. But the number of iPhones is permanent. British seem to love Apple no matter what.

Ant, themes called osx or macOSon gnome look...

Well, but you should check your version and what version every theme supports. I for myself don't use Gnome Shell at all, so I can't help you. Sorry.

Also touch chromebooks are a thing now

OSX-arc is Better than those imo

okay, thanks!

Also touch chromebooks are a thing now

This should trigger the @Wolfshappen, I'm sure...

I see a lot of Yogas and touch laptops at college

Oh, yeah, me too, but I saw them mostly in people in travel. I often heard "Oh, my laptop is too big/heavy/whatever so I brought this with me".

guys, can someone quickly tell me the output of: gnome-shell —version

What Fedora version?

This should trigger the @Wolfshappen, I'm sure...

Sure I hate chrome os too

What Fedora version?

27

I want a good touch Linux DE

GNOME 3.26 then, if you haven't changed anything.

GNOME?

Trust me. They are phones. They all fit in a pocket LOL

GNOME?

Gnome is meh for touch

Gnome is meh for touch

Have you used it? I wanna, tbh.

Yep

GNOME 3.26 then, if you haven't changed anything.

Also a Box running 16.04 LTS. Metacity is shit anyways.

Ugh, ubuntu. No idea.

These imo aren't the most intuitive

And applications can't really be spaced out for touch use outside maybe chrome

Older version... Have you tried touchegg? I've heard it's decent...

But I prefer 2 in 1s

You prefer what?

Older version... Have you tried touchegg? I've heard it's decent...

That's for touchpads

Like magic trackpad

You prefer what?

2 in 1s

Laptops with touch screens that fold or detatch

Like the Thinkpad Yoga

You prefer what?

"hybrid"

Low end laptops and tablets with a keyboard imo

Agree with this. I have a Chromebook to take with me when I travel. But it's not one thing instead the other, it's all of them. My phone for obvious reasons. My laptop for work. And a Chromebook when I travel.

I want a good touch Linux DE

Plasma, Gnome

Like the Thinkpad Yoga

Oh. No, I don't like it much. Last time I tried to install Fedora in one of those was a pain in... a headache.

Oh. No, I don't like it much. Last time I tried to install Fedora in one of those was a pain in... a headache.

I actually like that form factor, tbh, if it were easy to get Linux on it... (Eve V is supposed to make it easy to do that)

Oh. No, I don't like it much. Last time I tried to install Fedora in one of those was a pain in... a headache.

Its fine

Everything works out of the box

I was thinking about traditional laptops

And what is the difference between a traditional laptop, a low-end laptop and a netbook?

I actually like that form factor, tbh, if it were easy to get Linux on it... (Eve V is supposed to make it easy to do that)

It is tho

And what is the difference between a traditional laptop, a low-end laptop and a netbook?

Netbooks doesn't exist anymore

Netbooks doesn't exist anymore

Replaced by Chromebooks.

i used gnome 3 on dell's "transformer" tablet/ laptop and thats was fine

This should trigger the @Wolfshappen, I'm sure...

Hrm? chromebooks are nice linux base machines.

Netbooks doesn't exist anymore

I'm looking at two of them at the moment. How comes they don't exist?

And what is the difference between a traditional laptop, a low-end laptop and a netbook?

I mean, laptop like desktops are going away outside a work view

Only low end laptops and 2 in 1 will remain probably

It is tho

Are they easy to use, and does the tablet mode/ tent mode werk on Linux as intended on their OS?

My thoughts

It works like a laptop with a touchscreen

Replaced by Chromebooks.

It's not the same! I installed Debian and Fedora in netbooks without an issue. I can't install anything on a Chromebook.

As does every yoga for many years

It's literally no hassle

Replaced by Chromebooks.

Yep

Even for Wikipedia they doesn't exist anymore

It's not the same! I installed Debian and Fedora in netbooks without an issue. I can't install anything on a Chromebook.

Depends on the chromebook

ERROR: S client not available

I'm still waiting for @Occupato to explain what's the difference between traditional laptops and low-end laptops.

Some of them are super simple

From a commercial view

It's not the same! I installed Debian and Fedora in netbooks without an issue. I can't install anything on a Chromebook.

That's the manufacturer, I'm afraid... The netbook market however, has been captured by Chromebooks..

Hrm? chromebooks are nice linux base machines.

The expensive ones, yeah.

It works like a laptop with a touchscreen

Tent mode? If the keyboard is removed?

That's the manufacturer, I'm afraid... The netbook market however, has been captured by Chromebooks..

I don't care who's to blame. I only know that I can install stuff on a laptop/netbook and I can't on a Chromebook.

Tent mode? If the keyboard is removed?

You are talking specific products like the surface book? For those I have no idea.

Tent mode requires no software

I'm still waiting for @Occupato to explain what's the difference between traditional laptops and low-end laptops.

There isn't a real difference, apart from the fact that middle choices will be taken away... I'm not doing good explaining what i mean :/

There's nothing there to go wrong

You are talking specific products like the surface book? For those I have no idea.

No, in general. Most 2 in 1s have those feature. I know for a fact that getting Linux onto surfaces is hard...

What is a middle choice?

No, in general. Most 2 in 1s have those feature. I know for a fact that getting Linux onto surfaces is hard...

Most 2 in 1s don't have detachable screens

I don't care who's to blame. I only know that I can install stuff on a laptop/netbook and I can't on a Chromebook.

Well, you can, but it's harder.

Most have 360 hinges

And those at least are solid with linux

And those at least are solid with linux

That was part of my q, tbh.

Now, tell me, @KawaiiVoldemort which of those Linux supported 2 in 1s are available in India?

Well, you can, but it's harder.

And it's only certain distros for certain models...

What is a middle choice?

Like PCs. I didn't see a PC in a house for a while. Same for notebooks that are not touchscreen or have an integrated not detachable keyboard

And it's only certain distros for certain models...

Unfortunately, yeah. You can use crouton to install Ubuntu. But it's Ubuntu.

Now, tell me, @KawaiiVoldemort which of those Linux supported 2 in 1s are available in India?

Almost every thinkpad yoga and Yoga and the spectre x360 and pavilion x360

Also the xps and inspiron convertables

And i think at them like tablets with a keyboard

Like PCs. I didn't see a PC in a house for a while. Same for notebooks that are not touchscreen or have an integrated not detachable keyboard

All the notebooks I know have normal screens. But I still don't understand what is a middle choice. BTW, I don't see a desktop computer in ages. Some in shops and not always, many use a good laptop instead.

Unfortunately, yeah. You can use crouton to install Ubuntu. But it's Ubuntu.

Nah, it's not worth it. The storage is shitty anyway.

Almost every thinkpad yoga and Yoga and the spectre x360 and pavilion x360

I think that design would be great for my work stuff, tbh.

Nah, it's not worth it. The storage is shitty anyway.

Yeah.

I like Chromebook for what it is, a light laptop to work on simple tasks. I use one myself and I'm happy.

But for working, no way.

I also here the Eve V has decent Linux support but don't quote me on that
