This desktop environment style was indeed peak usability. That is why I chose the MATE desktop environment on Linux.

But I don't like the desktop itself. When I'm forced to use Windows I like to keep as close as possible to zero icons on the desktop. On Linux I use the i3 window manager (on top of MATE).

I used Devuan for quite a while (tried Gentoo, too), until I discovered Void Linux, the distro that finally put an end to my distro hopping.

Well, I certainly did. I just chose to keep it for myself. Until now.

Please do not feed the trolls.

And also the bool type, and the ability to declare variables after the beginning of a function.
