Ah right, let's exclude the people who like the UI and call them shills so that we can pretend that everyone hates it. Must be a good idea!

* that we can pretend that everyone hates it*
Whenever there is some news on gnome-shell there is always a bunch of comments about how they hate it and how the devs are not listening to the users, But a very rare gnome-shell love comment from the users.
Before you accuse *me* of pretending, If you are as honest as I believe you are, even this article has its comments about gnome-shell as any other article or thread about gnome-shell as you can see for yourself.

You are clearly ready to call people shills when they say they like it. Why would you expect anyone would want to express their preference for something when faced with such unnecessary name calling? When I do like something, I typically just use it and don't really talk about it much. I only air what I find problematic. That's how users work. Learn to live with that.

Hey, GNOME 3 is not so bad anymore. I don't even remember why I hated 3.0 so much.
I'm really impressed with the touchpad support in GTK+ 3. It seems to use real OS X style 2-finger gestures: you can fling documents up and down to scroll them with inertial movement (can't be done in KDE, it seems), and you have pixel precise scroll control: if you make a very small movement on touchpad with 2 fingers, then the document also only moves a little.(Again, doesn't seem to be possible in KDE.) I like the touchpad behavior so much I switched browsers for it, to Epiphany.
One thing that is odd, though, is: why do I have to enable horizontal scrolling via dconf editor? The horizontal stuff *totally* works. I was really bummed when I first thought it wasn't possible, but then I learnt that it had been possible in a previous version, so I guessed (correctly) that there must be a dconf entry for it. What a shame, but good job otherwise!

Can you file a bug on that horizontal scrolling thing? Could be that there just is no space for it in the current window. If so, might be an option for tweak tool.
