GNOME 3.8 to drop fallback modeGNOME 3.8 to drop fallback modePosted Nov 9, 2012 22:32 UTC (Fri) by vonbrand (subscriber, #4458)In reply to: GNOME 3.8 to drop fallback mode by dskoll Parent article: GNOME 3.8 to drop fallback mode
Your second point (again, just like in Gnome 1 --> 2) should read "Some technically-savvy people dislike GNOME 3 and are able to switch to XFCE, KDE, or whatever. I'm in this camp, complain loudly on LWN and $ELSEWHERE, and will quietly switch back to Gnome once I get bored with $REPLACEMENT." (Yes, Linus famously decreed Gnome 2 was useless junk when it came out. Now he complains Gnome 3 is different...).

I've been a dedicated XFCE user for many years and see no reason to abandon it. I'm not complaining about GNOME 3 for my own sake... I don't use it. However, it's going to be wrenching for my users (I'll probably switch them to XFCE instead) and I believe it will drive quite a few people away from Linux altogether.

Also, the sky is falling.
