I don't agree with this at all - and you don't need to switch distros unless systemd drives you up the wall - its way easier to switch from Gnome 2 to KDE than it is to switch to Gnome 3/Shell + fiddling with extensions. You have no choice but to change DE's now - Gnome 3 is just one choice - the others may offer more functionality and be a simpler transition - as a Gnome user thats what I am finding. I'd say its definitely easier to change to KDE or XFCE than to Gnome 3hell (speaking as an F14 gnome 2 user). 3rd party extension stuff - who is checking the code for privacy/security issues anyway? From my perspective so far changing from Gnome-2 to KDE is an easier and less obstructive change than to Gnome 3hell. I have installed and plan to try LXDE and XFCE as well ... -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
