How about the way that you can only trigger a specific and needed action (I don't remember which, as I don't use Gnome 3.) by going to the top left corner of the screen and this can only be changed by installing a third-party extension that lets you use the top right corner instead. It was recently revealed here that this was done because the Gnome dev who did it is left handed. From what I can tell, the other devs either let him do it whatever way he wanted without comment or if they did comment, he ignored them. This type of "development" leads to a confusing mishmash of inconsistencies, which is one of the things that drove me away. I may be wrong, but I've also gotten the impression that in many cases, a small group of devs forced the rest of them to accept something that most of them didn't like simply by being intransigent until everybody else gave up and let them have their way. If not, the results certainly look like that to me. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
