Even though most of the review does look like random bashing, there are some points which I can take as valid. Listing (in order of appearance): * notification panel (was systray) was really annoying during install, when instead of clicking next, the panel would pop up and cover the 'Next' button * bad integration a.k.a. ugly icons - annoying, and just plain ... ugly * online accounts - never got it to work properly for me, in fact I stopped caring to report any bugs Although one may argue the form and the phrasing the criticism was delivered, but it doesn't make it any less valid. However, at times the community seems to be content with the status quo and instead of fixing the obvious problems, it's just easier to name people 'trolls' (note, I'm making a general point here, the guy may be a troll after all). maciek -- 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
