Sooner or later, all of you who are unhappy with various parts of Gnome
3 are going to have to do one of three things
When Fedora 15 just came out, I heard thousands of complaints about Gnome
3. I'm sure a large percentage of people left Gnome altogether. However, I
for one absolutely LOVE Gnome3 - it does exactly what I want a computer to
do. Quick, intuitive, and easily organised (especially, it gets better
with every distro). The fact that you still rant about it, tells me that
you have probably not given it a real chance in the first place.
I'm under the impression that the animosity against Gnome3 is not because
Gnome3 sucks. It's for the same reason many people refuse to leave
Windows, even though they have tonnes of complaints about it: they do not
wish to learn something new. They know their way around a system, and do
not in the least appreciate any form of change.
I don't know you Joe, so I don't know for sure that is the case. But the
"Install enough extensions and hope they don't break" I find a very funny
argument - everything breaks. It always does. It's a law of nature;
nothing stays organised. And that's why Linux is so great - you can and
are allowed to fix it yourself. If you can't deal with that, I know some
OSes that will fix it for you... They cost though, but are great too.
I had to install Xfce on a machine because it didn't have enough hardware
for the full version. I felt - and feel - like I'm computing with one hand
tied behind my back every time I use it...
Gnome3 Rocks. I highly recommend it.
