How many other current distributions not based on Fedora actually use

Distos using a DE/distros shipping a DE != Enterprises actively
supporting, financing or actively development of a DE.
That said, from a mere user's point of view, current DE-development
separates into
* Ubuntu financing and pushing Unity.
* RH financing and pushing Gnome3
* SuSE financing and pushing KDE.
Distros' involvements into "foreign DEs" condenses into "repackaging and
adapting upstreams" without much actual development.
It's what e.g. Fedora does with KDE and openSUSE does with Gnome.
I haven't checked because I have no interest in using Gnome
3, but it might be an interesting thing to look into before drawing
any conclusions.
Let me try to rephrase my previous mail's intention: I'd expect
everybody to defend his baby rsp. to be convinced about his baby.
In other words: Like any parent, I am not expecting the RH-paid Gnome
devs to be critical about Gnome nor am I expecting them to be able to
comprehend/understand why people are complaining. They are the parents,
they are too close, they are biased.
Since it's Gnome Shell, not Gnome 3, that annoys people,
It's these "modally tiled UI" which do not meet my "menu-based/multi
workspace" dominated office-workflow and lack of customizability of the
DE. That's why neither Unity, Gnome 3 nor Cinnamon meet my demands.
