    Until gnome fixed the issue where their logon screen runs as a separate user that can’t verify Thunderbolt devices, I couldn’t use Gnome if I wanted to.

    And Gnome looks very nice, but I don’t think I could develop apps for GTK4, they need to get their asses on finishing it and making it actually work.

    I tried it out. I ran into constant framework side errors and gaps.

        That’s why I like it) Simple, accessible, big buttons, high-quality icons. Personally I use KDE when on GNU/Linux, but I definitely see what in GNOME would appeal to people sharing a computer with grandparents or children, or people who value design aesthetics more than extra functionality.

          I am 100% supportive of Gnome users and devs, and its right to exist. My opinion is that it looks the way it does and I wanted to share it. Some people prefer it for various reasons, and I think the reasons why I dislike it is why people like it.

          I’ll say one thing as a positive; at least it’s doing something different, which is nice. I just don’t like the different that it’s doing.
