Man I remember when Gnome 3 first came out, caused so much butthurt that it caused not one, not two, but several competitors to show up. Mate (for the don't change anything purists), cinnamon, unity. It was nuts but that first few iterations of Gnome3 were garbage. I was a KDE guy at the time and was excited for KDE4....
Yeah. Even they shit the bed. But I think we're all good now. Its been awhile most everyone has sorted themselves out. Just a funny time for Linux desktop.
Took ten years to recover from the "tablet era" and get back to functional desktop experience. I always wonder where we'd be if that time was spent on something useful
I wonder how many people actually used it on a tablet. It must have been a minute percentage
I was a unity diehard
It was pretty neat and I ended up using it for about almost a year.
The project lives on.
