*Some* of the issues are surely only beta issues but I sure hope that the desktop is not one of those! There seems to be a relentless push for smartphone/desktop commonality. The entire circus reminds me of where cars were at the turn of the previous century. There were far too many models with far too many weird features and the les tecnically inclined had to learn how to hand-crank and change tires in the mud or stay clear. Eventually it was the users who decided what went and what stayed on the shelf, not the designers whose role it is to present options. The future gets steered by the users, so if you're smart you ask them. The desktop will no more be equivalent to the smartphone than a cooupe or SUV will ever be equivalent to a Harley. It would be wise to remember that. So someone in the know please tell me, is this puke desktop hard-wired into Leap now? I don't like wasting my time.
I don't see anything strange in XFCE desktop, or gnome classic. They are the same as in 15.4.
Haven't tried XFCE with suse, I use that on other distros. I installed 15.5 with KDE, unless I misclicked; does gnome have 'Activities' too? And now that you bring it up, how do I switch seeing that the pre-login desktop selection is absent too?
