  • Yeah, I had absolutely no idea what “ricing” was even supposed to mean, like it doesn’t look like it’s short for anything, doesn’t seem like an acronym for anything, it’s not analogous or synonymous with anything, I can’t see how “rice” is supposed to be metaphorical at all to cool looking linux desktops, and it’s not an entirely new word like “rizz” or “yeet”

    So by all accounts it’s an absolutely unfitting word for what it’s describing

    Knowing the racist history of the term now, yeah that makes sense and yeah I vote we move to an objectively better term

    Idk what tho, maybe “decore” cuz it actually describes that the focus is the look, that the DE is the Core of the setup, and sounds cooler than “rice”

    “Decore” and “Decorizing” is probably the terms I’m personally gonna use atleast

    Edit: unless I find a better term, I came up with this one on the stop
