You use KDE. Where you there when KDE3 became KDE4 and broke our
hearts? What a flame fest that was. Yet, you use it now? Ah! Time
must have finally smoothed the rough edges. Yet, KDE4 happened no
matter what any of us had to say, and I was royally jerked about
it. Gnome went through the very same cycle. So did Ubuntu with all
of the lens (IMHO) junk. Every one of those projects were driven
top-down. We users just got pulled along.
Yes! I was at the KDE4 release at Google what fun..I also helped with
Trinity, Linux is about diversity and Debian has always been the
leader.
Whoa guys, slow down on the generalizations. Don't assume everyone uses
KDE4. Two years ago I kicked KDE, in its entirety, libraries and all,
off all my computers. It's an entangled monolith and a danger to
computing. The time might come when I need to do the same with Gnome.
Don't assume that users just bend over and take this entangled junk.
