From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

to be honest, that's not my screenshot and i haven't actually used windows in a while

outlook i don't know about, but firefox^[1]^ and chrome draw their own titlebars so they'd have the same problem on linux, be it gnome or otherwise.

any programmes can draw their own titlebars on win or linux (i don't know about mac), but if you only use programmes that use native titlebars (i tend to) then they'll all follow the system settings

[1] this can be disabled in ffx by right-clicking the top bar → customise toolbar → tick title bar (bottom left)
