I just registered for comment here: they always refused to admit it (by "they" I mean Fedora/IBM) but we will end up having a Gnome OS for the general public... And I'm afraid the 3E rule is starting to be applied (Extended already, Embraced in all the "other OS" and now...)

  Interestingly enough Poettering works for Microsoft now.

    Times change too. Microsoft does a ton of open source. They maintain an excellent immutable Linux distro. As always the true enemy is dogma and a cult-like adherence to it.

  Look at how well forking worked for elogind. It's been a constant burden for Gentoo and they've been looking to replace it ever since. APIs are sticky, and they are chosen because they're common, not because they're good.

Gnome maintains an OS for developers and such: https://os.gnome.org/ https://os.gnome.org/ Red Hat Enterprise Linux is basically a Gnome OS already. So is Ubuntu. Though both come in KDE flavour and a bunch of others too. I don't see what's wrong with Red Hat spending development time for "only" one single desktop environment.
