   This article beautifully articulates all of the complaints that I've ever had about the #gnome desktop environment as well as their design philosophy:

   Highly recommended reading for anyone who's even remotely interested in growing #GNU / #Linux as a viable desktop platform for regular users.

     I honestly don't know why anyone would use anything other than a window manager. Desktop environments are just ducktape on a leaky boat for people who don't want or know how to set up their own environment.
