This is what I don't understand about GNOME and their sponsors. Who are they even trying to serve? Because I could understand a project having goals that are misaligned with common users because their sponsors want them to do something else, but with GNOME they just seem to striving to produce a DE that nobody wants to use. And seemingly denying that any use case for a computer exists except staring at the desktop and doing nothing. Why are Red Hat et al. pouring money into a project that doesn't think videoconferencing is an important use case??
