The Quote buttons are bugging out so, if this doesn't get marked as a reply to Khrundel and pal666, that's who I'm replying to. That said... First, the blog post I linked is by a Solus team member, not someone from System76. Second, there's a video of an Inkscape developer (an application, not a distro) expressing concerns about GNOME's community right in that. Third, when I said GNOME has a history of this, I wasn't talking purely about what's in that blog post. I'm talking about what I've observed over the last 20 years. They've always had these flaws. They've just been coming to the fore more as GNOME changed what they want to promise and it's suddenly misaligned with what everyone else had been trusting them to provide for the decades prior.

But if they went the Unity way 11 years ago there is a reason. They're not profitable yet as I think they just barely broke even for the 1st time. But I'm sure they'll take on where they left when they have money to spare. They are way too different in their vision to get on the same bed for too long.
And theming wise, they went a different route.

By the way, you may remember news about bcachefs author trying to upstream his work into kernel. He tried several times and they just ignore him. And this is just another filesystem, it doesn't contradict kernel teams view on linux future, it doesn't break their efforts, and still they just don't accept pull request. Are you OK with it? Because you blame Gnome's developer for their refusal to merge patch which breaks their decision. Don't you think you have a huge bias against Gnome?

By the way why throwing in KDE in here? Ah I forgot, is the default desktop on Valve Deck...
