Really impressive work from the Pop!_OS team. They broke away from GNOME and decided to build their own DE, now it’s finally here

Maybe it's just media bias, but I have seen interest and work for GNOME really drop off the last couple of years. You could see something cool being worked on every couple weeks (at least reported on).

I remember this goal to change the window management to be more like a tiling WM (similar to Niri) that seems to have faded away. I recently moved from GNOME to KDE, one reason being KDE adopting Wayland protocols quicker and constant performance issues with GNOME.

Back when I was still into using Linux as desktop OS, I lost interest when GNOME 3.0 came to be.

After Ubuntu Unity, XCFE became my desktop, for the remaining netbook lifetime.

And I used to deal with Gtkmm back in 2000's, when GNOME still had a good architecture.
