I while back I opened a gnome session. I don't see what all the fuss is about. I thought it was clearly inferior. Maybe its just me. I guess the good thing is that we have a choice ! I don't like Redhat, especially Fedora, favoring one over the other.
I mayself do not _like_ iot, but I do very well understand it. RedHat is a business: they need to have a clear business plan. There is nohing clear abtu focusing on two, nearly mutually exclusive environments. Also, frankly agree with their choice. Any time I touch/see Gnome, it always seems to have a very strict/straight/coperate look which I would imagine would be perfect for RH's customers. I however use KDE on my desktops and XFCE on my servers. If I ever had to support a large number of Linux workstations, I would either use Gnome, or roll out a KDE customized to emulate the feel of Windows - the average person is not really capable of making full use of the power of KDE enough to differentiate it from Gnome (maybe even Windows). DISCLAIMER: the above is IMHO, and not material for flamming.
