The gnome problem is definitely an issue for me. Ubuntu's focus is obviously the "average" user so they make their changes in favor of people who don't know what they are doing and while it makes sense, it's not what I need/want. I think the Unity thing is a good example of this. While nice and easy for people to figure out, it's another step in the wrong direction from standard gnome.
- bilban 16y agoI don't think they even do it well. I prefer the default menus system on Debian/Gnome. They think they are UI experts and clearly they are not. I think the best thing they could do is unify the system control panel - copy that from OSX rather than this weird hybrid thing they are doing. Though I'm hoping their unity project will mature into something nice. I'm not even that bothered that they are straying from Gnome. Having said that I have enjoyed Ubuntu - though I put most of my good experience down to the system sitting on Debian.
