Hmmm, maybe Windows hired some of the GNOME developers
Gnome is nothing like Windows. I honestly can't think of a DE further away from how windows works than Gnome lol. It's KDE and Cinnamon that copied the tried and tested Windows UX paradigm, perhaps you have your DEs muddled...
The whole ethos of Gnome is throwing out the Windows workflow and going with a completely reimagined one completely unshackled from traditional UX.
Is this just one of those gnome=evilsuperbad comments
Eh, I admit my comment is kind of tongue in cheek and it isn't my favorite DE but I used it for a while (esp 2.0). I think it's kind of a stretch to call it shitting on though. Their design philosophy is literally simplicity and consistency. Which sometimes comes at the behest of customization. That's not shitting it just is what it is.
