I don't know about bugs. I haven't really noticed very many bugs in KDE, XFCE or MATE. Those pieces of software seem to be no buggier than Gnome. And I'm not sure why "modern tech" or a rapid release schedule is a good thing in and of itself. Modern tech and rapid releases are good only when they result in good things. Otherwise they're just churn. Change for the sake of change. Maybe if Gnome didn't have so much "modern tech", (like DBus, for example) the Gnome devs wouldn't be so overworked.

The change may be in areas you don't see. Refactoring is something visible only to developers but it has to be done continuously to be able to pay down tech debt. FYI dbus is also used by KDE, XFCE and MATE. Please avoid making more criticisms like this. Volunteers really aren't going to listen to you if you can't even get the basic facts right.

  Well, it's not as if the Gnome devs are listening to me as it is, so I don't really see the difference.

    I think they would, if you met them where they were at.

      You’re a Gnome dev, right? You seem very defensive.

        No I'm just a user of GNOME who doesn't appreciate seeing the near-constant flames and misinformation from non-users of the software whenever I try to discuss it online in certain places. It's low-quality commenting and it poisons the discussion. You're misinterpreting an aversion to bad discussion as "defensiveness." If you were doing this same thing for KDE I'd be asking you to stop too.

        You aren’t doing the Gnome project any favours.
