The difference between the Linux community and Microsoft is on Linux you are free to use whatever you want. There are a ton of distros (even Fedora/Ubuntu versions) that have KDE out of the box. If you don't like Gnome, you don't have to use it.
I'm happy Gnome exists, but you do you.
People like to rage, and rage about how Gnome killed their father or whatever and I just get tired of the constant hate towards a workflow that I actually like.
It’s fine, even commendable to try something different. But to radically change default interfaces is a bad idea. They should have picked a new name and become an option.
Another ridiculous outcome is that gnome is unable to produce a touchscreen video player despite (15 years of prior art on the ipad) and cosplaying touchability all the while.
