This seems a little over-the-top, but I do have to agree that in many ways, Linux just isn't driven by enthusiasts any more. It just doesn't have the excitement it had back in the late 90s and early 00s that I remember, and the desktop environments in particular have really stagnated, which I mostly blame on GNOME.
