What REALLY changed with Gnome 3? The desktop shell is the only real change. That experience can be replicated with already existing technology. Honestly, the only people I hear saying they are pleased with Gnome3 are the extremist fanboys. Those are the folks who have too much emotional investment in Gnome to admit it sucks.
The sad – or should I say funny? – thing about this kind of discussion within the linux community is that both groups argue "x/y is better" or "I like x/y better" just that one likes x and the other y. Yet while liking x is a clear sign of fanboyism, liking y better is regarded reasonable. But it gets even more "funny" because those that think of themselves as not being fanboys but reasonable, tend to use a kind of language that shows more signs of subjectiveness, exaggeration, over-simplification, group-think, insularity, fanatic devotion, emotionality, ideology etc. than those labeled as fanboys. IMHO – as soon as the term fanboy comes-up, Godwin's law is close. Sven -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
