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.

I'm DE-agnostic. What do you mean by 'stupid issues'? That's not really specific.
off the top of my head,
Performance of gnome isn't great I often find it laggy on my lower end devices.
Configuring gnome requires two separate GUI apps, and then you still may need cli.
Gnome apps like nautilus, the file browser are also absurdly slow, sometimes taking more then 4 seconds for me (and others see here https://medium.com/@fulalas/gnome-mess-is-not-an-accident-4e301032670c) to load thumbnails.
I found gestures to be inconsistent on my Chuwi hi10x too. They often times wouldn't work and I would need to try multiple times.
I did have other issues, but I didn't exactly log them.
