The gnome team is worse then apple and Microsoft.

At least they own the entire OS they force their changes on.

The gnome team just fucks with everyone everywhere and gives zero fucks otherwise.

I used to have this view but I've come around: change can be painful but it's also necessary. It's like a wildfire: it's destructive but it allows for new growth and it's a sign of a healthy, sustainable ecosystem. Suppressing change isn't healthy.

Do I think that every change from Gnome is a winner? Nope but I do think they're doing their best to move in the right direction, as they see it. And for that, I'll keep using Gnome and I wish them good luck.

Agreed. I use GNOME on one system and KDE on another, and I think it's good to have a group that's very opinionated since consistent systems are much easier to support and more intuitive for new users. I don't think GNOME itself is ideal, but I do think the ideas they're pushing are worth discussing.

That said, there's a reason I'm not all-in on GNOME.
