IRC Channel

It was a long time ago, but the tread was talking about the possibility of an IRC channel. I created one and now there are idlers in there but not much activity since the first day. Don't know if I should keep the link there. You guys decide. I plan on getting a bot in lue of a moderator team. That seems pretty silly for me to moderate that channel, and even sillier to appoint moderators. --The One, The Only... Chocolate Chip! (talk) 20:10, 30 November 2015 (EST)

And in what server is it? EDIT: Nevermind. It'll be kept there (or would be moved to OP post.) --Morpheus (talk) 20:11, 30 November 2015 (EST)

Recommended distros for beginners, Part 2

Ubuntu Mate? --Topcuck420, confused.

MATE was the closest DE (GNOME 2) when Ubuntu is still good (10.04), if you have any alternative DE to propose then go ahead. --Morpheus (talk) 13:08, 2 December 2015 (EST)

Do you think subjecting newbies to the Gnome Classic experience is a good idea? I mean, even I would only recommend bullshit like Cinnamon and XFCE

Or should I recommend Ubuntu GNOME instead? --Morpheus (talk) 01:13, 3 December 2015 (EST)

I would think that would be better, given how consistent GNOME tries to be. But, to be honest, I'd still recommend single-panel by-default DEs. Maybe Manjaro instead of Ubuntu, since they too care about ignorant users, but at least they don't sell them out.
