[UFO Chicago] Gnome / Sway Update

[Brian Sobolak]

Hola ufonians!

I wanted to say thank you for all of the tips you sent me a few weeks 
ago.  I solved the immediate problem of slowness on my machine by 
switching to Gnome Classic, which is good enough.  (I didn't open the 
hood to check the memory.)

But the recommendations for Sway were great.  I happened to have an 
older laptop that I converted to Fedora Atomic Sway, and it's the most 
fun I've  had computing in a long time.  It's totally resurrected a 5 
year-old laptop that was collecting dust because it was too slow to run 
commercial software.

(Sort of related: I didn't enjoy Omakub, and overall I find Ubuntu 
irritating. I can't explain why, just not my cup of tea.  I know a lot 
of people here ran Debian; I might give that a spin later.)

Anyway -- thanks again for the support!
