5 Things elementary OS 6 Should Improve for a Better Linux Desktop Experience
======
[elementary OS 6.1 is the latest release][1] with many essential improvements and new features.
Of course, the choice of a Linux distro for your system varies on many levels. However, I think there are a few things in elementary OS that could have been done differently.
Here, I list some of the aspects that could use some improvements in elementary OS.
_**Note that this is entirely my opinion, so take it with a pinch of salt.**_
### Things That Can Be Improved in elementary OS
If you are curious, I plan to point out things I dont like for other distributions as well (starting with this).
It is usual to feature the good stuff but unless someone points out the potential nuances in a distro, you cannot really decide whether the distro is for you or not.
#### 1\. No Built-in Debian Package Installer
![][2]
Considering it as an Ubuntu-based distribution, downloading a deb file to only find that you cannot install, makes you look for solutions.
This makes sense because elementary OS switched to a Flatpak-only model with [elementary OS 6 release][3], even for the first-party applications.
However, new users are likely to be unaware of solutions like “**Eddy**” which is a Debian package installer and available in the AppCenter.
A notice/tip that points to you to the tool when you try installing a deb package should make it clear. Or, having Eddy pre-installed should make things convenient.
#### 2\. Flathub Support out of the box
![][4]
The Flatpak-first approach makes things more secure and convenient. However, you cannot install Flatpak applications via Flathub unless you manually add the third-party Flatpak repo (using the terminal).
Even though AppCenter features Flatpak applications, it may not be enough for all users. In contrast, Flathub offers a massive collection of Flatpaks.
While it is good to offer a first-party experience and give the ability to the user to enable third-party (Flathub) if required, but can something be done to easily enable the Flathub support without heading to the terminal? (ignoring the flatpak ref files)
![][5]
Well, I think a quick toggle switch to enable/disable out-of-the-box support for Flathub could make things better.
Or, mention the command along with the suggestion to enable Flathub as you noticed in the screenshots above.
#### 3\. Minimize button
![][6]
Considering elementary OS does not feature any auto-tiling window feature like Pop!_OS, the lack of minimize button on many applications could prove to be annoying.
Yes, you can utilize the keyboard shortcut **Super + H** to hide/minimize the window. However, for mouse-oriented users, it does not feel comfortable to not have a minimize button.
#### 4\. No System Tray Support
![][7]
As per their design choices, the elementary OS team thinks that its best to not have system tray support (or so I read as per some Reddit posts).
Unfortunately, the system tray icons are incredibly useful for quick access, and to keep an eye on the status of something.
For instance, I can quickly access the Flameshot screenshot tool from the app indicator icon, check sync status when using a tool like Insync, and also get informed when there is a message for me in Slack.
And, without the system tray icon integration support, I cannot do any of this, which is a deal-breaker.
#### 5\. A Separate NVIDIA ISO
![][8]
A separate NVIDIA ISO (or Nvidia graphics installation mode) is much more convenient than installing a proprietary Nvidia driver through the software center.
Sure, I did not have any issues installing Nvidia drivers using the AppCenter. But, with a separate ISO, you eliminate the additional step after installation.
### Wrapping Up
There are flaws in every operating system, a Linux distribution is not an exception.
Sometimes these nuances are there by design, as per their targeted users. You may or may not like everything that a distro does, which is why it is important to know what can they do better (or if it is suitable for you).
elementary OS is undoubtedly [one of the most beautiful Linux distributions][9] out there. But, is it the one for you?
Well, if some of the points that I mention do not bother you, it should be a great experience for you.

elementary OS 6 应该改进体验的 5 个地方
======
> elementary OS 是一个漂亮的 Linux 发行版,但它适合所有人吗?它们是否有可以做得更好的地方?下面是我的想法。
![](https://i1.wp.com/news.itsfoss.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/elementary-os-opinion.png?w=1200&ssl=1)
[elementary OS 的 6.1 是最新的版本][1],它做了许多基本的改进,带来了一些新功能。
当然,为你的系统选择的 Linux 发行版在很多方面都是不同的。然而,我认为在 elementary OS 中,有一些事情可以做得更好。
在这里,我列出了 elementary OS 中可以做的一些改进。
不过,这仅代表我个人观点,请诸位轻喷。
### elementary OS 中可以改进的东西
如果你想看的话,我也打算指出其他发行版的我不喜欢东西(从这篇开始)。
发行版通常仅展示其好的一面,除非有人指出一个发行版中潜在的细微差别,否则你无法真正确定这个发行版是否适合你。
#### 1、没有内置的 Debian 软件包安装程序
![][2]
它是一个基于 Ubuntu 的发行版,但下载一个 deb 文件后才发现无法安装,还得让你寻找解决方案。
这当然是有原因的,因为 elementary OS 在 [elementary OS 6 发布][3] 时切换到了只使用 Flatpak 的模式,即使是对于第一方的应用程序也是如此。
然而,新用户很可能不知道像 Eddy 这样的解决方案,它是一个 Debian 软件包安装程序,可以在 AppCenter 中找到。
当你尝试安装 deb 包时,指向该工具的通知/提示应该说明清楚。或者,预下安装 Eddy 应该会让事情变得更方便。
#### 2、Flathub 支持开箱即用
![][4]
Flatpak 优先的方法使安装软件更加安全和方便。然而,你不能通过 Flathub 安装 Flatpak 应用程序,除非你(使用终端)手动添加了第三方 Flatpak 仓库。
即使 AppCenter 提供了 Flatpak 应用程序但它可能不足以满足所有用户的需要。相比之下Flathub 提供了大量的 Flatpak 应用程序。
虽然提供第一方的体验并且让用户能够在需要时启用第三方Flathub是件好事但是否可以做些什么来轻松启用 Flathub 的支持,而无需去终端?(忽略 flatpak 的参考文件)
![][5]
好吧,我认为用一个快速切换开关来启用/禁用开箱即用的 Flathub 支持可以使事情变得更好。
或者,像你在上面的截图中注意到的那样,在建议启用 Flathub 的同时提到该命令。
#### 3、最小化按钮
![][6]
考虑到 elementary OS 没有像 Pop!_OS 那样的自动平铺窗口功能,许多应用程序上缺少最小化按钮可能会让人觉得令人不适。
是的,你可以利用键盘上的快捷键 `Super+H` 来隐藏/最小化窗口。然而,对于以鼠标操作为主的用户来说,没有最小化按钮的感觉并不舒服。
#### 4、没有系统托盘支持
![][7]
根据他们的设计选择elementary OS 团队认为最好不要有系统托盘的支持(或者是我从 Reddit 的一些帖子中了解到的情况)。
不幸的是,系统托盘的图标对于快速访问和关注某事物的状态非常有用。
例如,我可以从应用指示器图标中快速访问 Flameshot 截图工具,在使用 Insync 等工具时检查同步状态,当 Slack 中有我的信息时也会得到通知。
而如果没有系统托盘图标的整合支持,我就不能做这些事情,这是一个缺陷。
#### 5、一个单独的 NVIDIA ISO
![][8]
单独的 NVIDIA ISO或 Nvidia 显卡安装模式)比通过软件中心安装专有的 Nvidia 驱动程序要方便得多。
当然,我在使用 AppCenter 安装 Nvidia 驱动时没有任何问题。但是,有了单独的 ISO你就省去了安装后的额外步骤。
### 总结
每个操作系统都有缺陷Linux 发行版也不例外。
有时这些细微的差别是根据其目标用户设计出来的。你可能喜欢也可能不喜欢一个发行版所做的一切,这就是为什么要知道它们能否做得更好(或是否适合你)。
elementary OS 无疑是 [最漂亮的 Linux 发行版之一][9]。但是,它适合你吗?
好吧,如果我提到的一些观点是你不在意的,那它对你来说应该是很好的体验。
