I took my hat out of the desktop race a long long time ago. the only thing that has really affected me recently was Mate switching entirely to GTK3. my text editor now does all sorts of things the maintainer of the editor can't change, like smooth-scrolling when using the find dialog.
I really want to get behind this effort for an improved desktop, even if it means breaking everything. but I have to be able to trust each of the components.
