Gnome is nothing like it.

Which at best would be its only achievement.

Do you see a taskbar at the bottom? A start button? Menu bar? System tray in the bottom right? Clock in the bottom right? Minimise, Maximise, Close at the top right of each Window?

Apparently RISC OS, AmigaOS and NextStep were Windows clones.

See, that's why Gnome is appropriately treated as crap. Because its developers and users alike are similar to you in general.

First you say it's a Windows clone, then you concede it isn't. Make your mind up 🤣

Cinnamon and Plasma are Windows clones. That's fine if what you want is a Windows clone. I don't. I want a consistent, good looking DE free of ancient design cruft and free of the shitty Windows workflow.

Nah, only weird losers who want a Windows clone cry about Gnome. WAAAAHHHHHH THIS ISNT LIKE WINDOWS!!! WHERE'S MY TASKBAR 😭😭😭😭

Gnome is treated very well. It's the most commonly found default amongst distros. Because it's the most trusted.

Don't get me started on the absolute bug-fest that Plasma is. Literally unusable. Cinnamon, while a Windows clone, is at least stable. Probably because it's Gnome-based.
