This topic for discussion is raised too many times, so it even become "talk of the Linux Community". And this is not the right place to tell how are you angry on GNOME team. Someone agreed with their new viewings on things, and someone not. And there's no way to please everyone. > And I just checked, I don't even have this settings.ini file in the first > place. Then just create it. Add `[Settings]` section, and then `gtk-primary-button-warps-slider = false`. [1] > Two years ago all of my desktops were Gnome, like they've been for the > previous ~15 years.

I did'nt understood these changes, and sticked with KDE 4. But then KDE 4 was dropped by KDE Team and development of KDE 5 started. So I just was forced to use GNOME because of some KDE 4 bugs, which now will never be fixes. And only then I understood the GNOME 3 idea. All the things, which I tried to do using *configurability* of KDE 4, GNOME Team has done for me in GNOME 3.
