    The nice thing about GNOME is that you immediately get it, on a fundamental level that is. The not so nice thing is that lots of stuff is an add-on, and it’s entirely possible installing the wrong one will brick your desktop

      I get it, but maybe the same way I get driving on the other side of the road, or writing with my non-dominant hand: I can do it, and maybe I could get used to it or even be efficient with it, but it’s unfamiliar and far from being second nature to me.

      I disagree that Gnome is intuitive on a fundamental level. They’re trying the Apple way of UI design without the millions in R&D.
