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.
