GNOME Client-Side Decorations (CSD) discussion
Posted: 2018-01-27 17:09
From the GNOME blog:

TL;DR: GNOME suggests that application developers remove title bars in GNOME to save some screen space, integrate better with GNOME and look better. CSD in the form of "header bars" is already used by GNOME programs such as Files. IMHO, and this might sound offensive to some people, these changes are looking good. Now, people are complaing that this is just another hard dependency pushed by GNOME.
Here is a rather heated discussion on /r/linux:

Keep in mind that this is, for now, just an initiative by one GNOME developer. And try to keep the discussion civil, igniting flame war like the one seen on /r/linux will get this thread locked.
