On: Gnome Merge Requests Opened That Would Drop X.org ...

So did I; I've heard all the things, how terrible it is, and so on.

Then, few years later I tried it for myself - and it was actually nice. I started to like Gnome 3. Listening to other's opinions without trying it myself was a mistake.

For me, the problem is not that it's terrible (it's not). It is that the the priorities of Gnome developers don't align with mine.

They want an evolving desktop, keeping up with new trends, ideas and hardware.

I want a stable desktop that doesn't change much between versions and doesn't lag on my eeePC.
