Why for Linux? Its always painted as Zion for matrix-dwellers?
It's painted like that because it is. It's the biggest bastion of freedom.
Well, because it's still enormously complex and growing, and because, in user applications, comparing today's XFCE to 2010's XFCE is sad, and because comparing today's Gnome to Gnome 2 in its prime is sad, and because comparing today's KDE, eh, even to KDE4 - the same.
Because it's becoming less and less logical, wave after wave people suffering NIH syndrome and\or thinking that mimicking MacOS or Windows is very smart erode it, and because the Web is ugly and becoming uglier.
And because CWM initial configuration takes 15 minutes to write and forget, and there's no Wayland compositor which would take the same amount of time to set up for me, with the same easiness of use.
Anyway, what I wrote in that comment was a subjective feeling and I'm trying to rationalize it retroactively now, which is the same as lying.
Of course it's what you said for Windows and MacOS users.
