I made this post because I really like the design of GNOME, and although i'd like customizability, it is mostly enough for my everyday needs. But I want to understand why people may choose other desktop environments..or why you would/would'nt use GNOME.

Using it because it's the least buggy DE i've tried so far. With a few extensions the workflow isn't too bad either.

I love the design of the applications in general tho, in the sense that they do one thing and one thing only and there aren't a billion options trying to cover every use case without doing any of them well.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
