I wouldn't say Fedora "follows blindly" but rather chooses an upstream from some alternatives (their ability to handle feedback from us beeing one ot

Gnome has been the default, unless I'm misremebering since *before*
Fedora (RH8/9 or earlier). That's not incompatible with 'chooses an
upstream from some alternatives' but does suggest some inertia. Maybe
if Gnome really thinks distros might drop them they'd think harder
about introducing unwanted workflow changes every other release.

The actual problem is the current Gnome 3 being an entirely different product than Gnome 2, which usability-wise has *nothing* in common with Gnome2 and addresses a completely different target audience.

You ordered Gnome and have been served Pizza for a long time - now you're being served Burgers :-)
