its not hate, its logic
even unity required some precision while you can use gnome3 with a rubber hammer on a touchscreen
some like it, some do not
thats why theres so much trolling around
and to be honest its pointless, no1 is stopping you from using gnome2 xfce cinnamon or whatever looks like old gnome and its shown you cant influence the dev's so... why fight

I use gnome-shell, customized to hell and back. It looks just like a two-row configuration of gnome-panel (gnome-2). It is efficient. I don't want to go into freaking retard mode blowing that worthless ugly interface over everything when all I want to do is bring another window to the front. I want that window listed right there and be easily accessed.
Gnome is going to hell, determined to drive themselves entirely into irrelevance. I could care less about it being "pretty", I need it to be FUNCTIONAL. They focus on worthless glitter. I WANT UGLY AND PRACTICAL!!!!!!

Could you give any references to where you tried to contribute and were rejected? Could you show me the lack of options to contribute? I see various new Git accounts being created every week. So I wonder why you think otherwise.
Also please note that GNOME is a bunch of people, not everyone is a man, so calling everyone assholes is aside from rude also pretty sexist. Do note that within GNOME being needlessly rude is not acceptable behaviour.

Can't help but heavily rant on this one. Sorry in andvance...

But seriously, is it that hard to press META and type 2-3 letters from the name of the app/file you want to load?
Originally posted by Adrinnho View PostBut I could agree with you on this one. I guess people who eat in front of the monitor can't use Gnome-Shell.
Someone please put this one on that list. It should sound like '11-Improve support for eating by bringing back those damn clickable panels'
Originally posted by Adrinnho View PostYep, you nailed it this time...it's Apple's fault. Gnome devs should't innovate, because, well, that's a thing only Apple does.
On another Mailing list they mentioned the other day that playing CD/DVD media physically (by inseting discs in a drive) is too 70s to further support. The moment Linux goes that far I can swith to an OS that actually has more experience in delivering crap. At least the software stack integrates well there.

I hope there will be another poll this year, and as someone wrote, this time with more specific questions. Sure there will still be a lot of haters, but Gnome devs have to accept that and come out of their bubble.
One example: "Better customization support is needed. ": seems like nobody knows about extensions.gnome.org or something. Just guessing, because that is basically all you can do.
Another: "Improve the performance and memory foot-print with GNOME becoming "too bloated", using too much of the CPU and system memory. ": Memory usage + CPU usage is similar to GNOME 2 stuff. No details on what things are slow. Obviously performance is always worked upon, same for memory.
Most of this list also reminds me reminds me of that Henry Ford quote: "Henry Ford once said that, if he?d asked his customers what they wanted, they?d have asked for a faster horse."
Phoronix/Michael seem to totally ignore this. You need to understand why people are doing things and that is way more involved that this '10 suggestions' list.
Things need to be interpreted. Not taken at face value.
Anyway, the following link explains it better:
