I've never understood all the love and excitement and attention that GNOME has gotten ever since Canonical got behind it and dropped Unity. All the cheerleading over what seem like really basic fixes that haven't been a problem on other DEs, like "now the single-threaded shell crashes to login less often! Horray!" That's only intensified with 3.40 (Now hailed as "40" like a pop star using only their first name.) Apparently the top hot new feature is "horizontal workspaces"...mind-blowing.
