    Not really, this was the paradigm on Mac for ages. That’s also why there are three different ways for a Mac app to “become fullscreen” and they have different behavior, because they kept patching on top of the default workflow

        True, but Mac users are the least flexible computer users of all time.

        Apple changes two pixels in an icon or introduces a new default window snapping size and the hosts of ATP record a 5 hour long podcast episode abou this ruined the world and permanently broke their workflow.

          Ok, but we’re talking about GNOME here and you’re saying that somehow GNOME copied Apple on this, but it really isn’t the case. GNOME apps pretty much all do go full screen. And the paradigm for over a decade has been this way.

              Never got the Mac trend of not using your full screen. I get even less why Gnome copied it.

              You’re right, you personally didn’t, but thats the thread we’re talking about right now.

                Exactly. I didn’t. I suggest reading usernames before commenting.

                    My reply followed the thread just fine. Your last reply to me didn’t match my comment branch, only the first by somebody else.

                    It’s not hard, I don’t understand what you’re expecting from this conversation.
