GNOME 3.2 released

I think you missed alexl's point. You not only vented against Gnome 3 (without making any specific critiques) but you also stated that anyone who likes Gnome 3 is a drooling idiot. The latter is an insult to anyone who likes Gnome 3, and there are a good number of those people. So, alexl was criticizing your post for adding little signal (but lots of noise) to the discussion while gratuitously insulting anyone who might disagree with your opinions.

By the way, Linus viciously criticized Gnome 2 as well. Later he switched to it and most recently bemoaned that Gnome 3 isn't like his beloved Gnome 2. The wheel keeps on turning. Maybe Linus will one day love Gnome 3.
