Because a lot of people surprisingly care (just look at how many likes he gets). He is making difference and apparently he redirected Qt to do the wrong thing, almost.
But I get you both :'D

The use of Gnome in SUSE is a historical thing, from even before the term LTS was commonly used.
Back when SUSE was owned by Novell, they bought a Gnome company, Ximian and one of it's founders Nat Friedman ended up in a leading position at SUSE/Novell. Due to him and others from Ximian (And I guess support from some others in Novell management, as a way to defend the not so great acquisition), they changed default to Gnome. They also tried to change the default in OpenSUSE, but the massive push-back from users and developers stopped it. As a way to save face and still push their unwanted agenda, it ended up with the lame compromise "no default at install" solution still present today. In reality, as everyone know, the default for the OpenSUSE userbase is still KDE.
However, SUSE users can install the DE they prefer, the basic one is really bad, it is not Gnome Shell as we all know it, but just install openSUSE with Gnome to find the SUSE session and to be convinced that it is better not to have it.

I wonder if that thing got any fixes, or is even recognized as something to improve.Last edited by horizonbrave; 03 July 2020, 10:40 PM.

Very fun thread to read!
Kudos to both Gnome fans and haters.. I wonder how much and why these haters are upset about everything gnome related.
Do they think that with Gnome disappearing KDE will be better?
Upset about KDE not being picked as default in major distros?
Just frustrated fans?
Go figure..
