How accessible at installing and beyond is cinnamon?


I didn't try the Cinnamon Fedora spin, but it's ... OK. It plays sounds for windows opening and closing, maximizing and unmaximizing, switching workspaces, at startup, many more places than I hear sounds in MATE. This is good, but lots of flat review has to be used in the super key menu as well as in the window and workspace selectors. I can interact with notifications using super+n, and that even shows me a clock. But I can't find things like NetworkManager, my DNF Dragora applet, a system tray or anything else like this, with the exception of the clock that is present on the notification list and the calendar that opens up with a clock when I press super+c. Most things if not accessible with standard keyboard functions like tabs, arrows, etc. are accessible via flat review. Bottom line, if you don't like using flat review or if you need a system tray, steer clear ... unless I missed something. Otherwise, it seems like it has come a long way, although much work is still needed to bring it up to par with MATE or probably even with GNOME.
