Is there an alternative to the desktop interface beyond CLI?
Is there an alternative to the desktop interface beyond CLI?
Found this video interesting and wonder if there are any alternatives within Linux systems
You're viewing a single thread.
First video has a nice edited summary of the history of guis.
But if the author had anything to say about guis other than it could be different, he would have said it. -Or at least suggested it to keep interest. The next video is a summary of every YouTube short he's watched on philosophy and physics.
It's not relevant to Linux at all.
It's relevant to linux in I think the average linux user is more open to consider alternative interfaces than a windows user.
Video is more than just a history, I thought it was eye opening for considering what could be an alternative. I also don't know but find the question interesting.
It would be interesting if he actually presented an alternative instead of 45 minutes (3 videos so far) of, "What if there was an alternative?"
The video doesn't even talk about Linux. It's Xerox Parc, Ted Nelson, Apple Macintosh, and Windows.
That would certainly be more interesting. Sorry you don't find it relevant..
It's fine. Your post has started an actual discussion of alternative UI's that's far more informative than the video.
