Yeah, let’s not mention Gnome breaking every peace of itself every update, along with abandoning APIs and hating QT apps. How can I use a DE, if I can almost certainly be sure that half of my extensions won’t work after another update? Or that all of my QT apps will look weird (if they’ll work at all)?
And I don’t hate Gnome. It’s cool and stuff, but you can’t call it stable, 'cause KDE/XFCE/LXDE/[insert DE name here] will be far more stable than Gnome.
