I'm glad this is not the default way of thinking for everyone, because if it were, we'd never see any progress.

  I'm glad I have the choice not to follow desktop "innovation", because I was here for the history of GNOME 3, and Xfce's lack of ambition keeps proving correct. CADT is not, in fact, a good idea.

    XFCE4 has been enhanced a lot.

      and without pulling a GNOME 3

        You can set up an XFCE desktop with ease from the Guix installer (Guix System, as a standalone distro). I know, it's odd to setup compared to any other distro , because the main recommended usage it's to pin a desktop/nm services and such as system packages and the rest to be installed with "guix package -i foo bar...", such as Firefox, Libreoffice... But the rollback features from the Grub menu and ensuring no dependency hell, ever, can be golden for production cases and for reproducibility in science, for instance.

          you're coming across as having a much greater interest in wedging in a promotion for Guix than anything else
