Whenever I try to use GNOME, there never seems to be a setting for the thing I want to do.
I convinced a friend to try Linux once, and she abandoned it because it didn’t have a setting that she needed for her work. Later, when I tried KDE, not only was the setting there, but it was the default.
It really sucks that desktop is the default for so many distros, because most users coming from Mac or Windows don’t even realize they can use a different desktop environment. So, if your only experience with Linux is GNOME, and you think “Linux sucks”, I can hardly blame you.
