GNOME is basically the Apple of desktop environments. "You're wrong to want this super common thing, we know what's better for you and don't you defy us!"
You are free to fork it at anytime. I really can’t hate them for having a cohesive vision they plan on developing.
That's fair, and people have.
Yep. GNOME is terrible. Unfortunately, it's the default desktop for most distros, so it's most new users' experience of "what Linux is".
I don't always use Fedora, but when I do it's always Fedora KDE. Sometimes I forget that the default is GNOME which leads to confusion when posting about issues I run into on Fedora lol.
