Didn’t read, but I agree that gnome is bad.

I started writing about all the different things I don’t like about gnome but I realized that it’s veered wildly through several different user interface types since I’ve been around it and some of the stuff I was gonna bring up isn’t even currently part of the ui metaphor or even design philosophy.

Sure I dislike gnomes mobile ui model now, but what really bugs me is the absolutely hallucinogenic level of changes it’s been through. Even if I did like its current iteration, I had better not get attached, it’s likely to change so it can chase some new thing in a few years.

So not only does it piss me off now but learning to like it or changing my mind would just be setting me up for failure later.

Doing something so badly that even the people who like what you do will be negatively impacted is impressive though. Olympic level design failure.
