Anonymous raged 6 months ago —— What is this Unity crap that Ubuntu is trying to push onto users these days? This new window manager that is now the "standard" that comes with Ubuntu and is the default window manager is the slowest, buggiest most un-user friendly user interface I have ever seen or used.

This pile of crap is practically unresponsive on an older machine and can take several minutes for the desktop to even open a window when it first starts up, and afterwards it takes so long to even open a menu or program.

I recently tried to introduce Linux to a friend who just went back to school and decided to focus on a career on computer networking. I explained to him all the benefits of Linux and why he should give it a try. So we took a fairly new netbook that was only a year old and installed Ubuntu on it as it is one of the better distros to "simply work" on netbooks.

Install went fine, and it found all the hardware (amazing!) and then this ugly, slow confusing window manager loads up called Unity. After 2 hours of trying to use this awful window manager and trying to load up a different one and giving up on trying to search online trying to find how to use a different manager we finally found how how to use a different window manager. Oh we could find a new one to use, but you Cannot uninstall Unity!

For those of you who want to know how to use a different window manager instead of Unity all you need to do is logout and when you are brought to the login screen choose a different installed window manager from the drop down menu. You will not see this screen unless you Manually logout since on startup and shutdown you never see the login screen (because the system automatically logs you in, wow that's secure!).


Ubuntu pull your head out of your ass and give people the Choice of window manager they want to use during the setup. Unity is only usable if you are using a very high end machine (I wouldn't try it on anything less than a quad core with 6 gigs of ram).

This Unity piece of crap dosen't come close to compete with Gnome or even Kde. Why they have decided to try making a tablet Os that is also used on a desktop is beyond me. Microsoft is doing the same thing with the next version of Windows so you should know its a bad idea. People do Not Want a tablet Os on their desktop / laptop. Stop making your users use one!

    I tired Ubuntu for about three days on a netbook that came with Windows 7 installed. Thinking that windows 7 was just to much to ask for from a pathetic little netbook, I thought a better choice would be a Linux OP like Ubuntu. But damn, the thing is so UN-intuitive! Trying to install simple programs was a night mare. I did not find it very user-friendly. I REALLY wanted to like Ubuntu, so I could kiss Microsoft goodbye, but I found it profoundly disappointing....with the exception being the Android O.P.

    Die painfully okay? Prefearbly by getting crushed to death in a garbage compactor, by getting your face cut to ribbons with a pocketknife, your head cracked open with a baseball bat, your stomach sliced open and your entrails spilled out, and your eyeballs ripped out of their sockets. Fucking bitch
