I use aurora-dx on my school laptop, just installed bluefin-gx on my personal laptop to give GNOME another go
A"who is the target market for this"
GMasochists
Atrue
VPeople who need reproducability
HI hate and love gnome
VIf you was for whatever reason deploying NixOS, it'd be insanely good
Hhate cause GTK4 is pain
Hlove cause its sleek
GBut yeah if you're willing to sink in a lot of time to create a perfect reproducible config then Nix can be of benefit
Athe last thing I want to be doing is writing a million billion script files to make everything exactly how I want it. I know some people are into that and that's fine but I dunno I like actually USING my computer
Hbut also hate cause it feels like a touch tablet every time I use it
VI've always been KDE
HI use KDE cause its what I can use rn
HI don't like QT
Amy flag is pitched firmly over in camp gnome
Hnor KDE
GNo matter what I can't escape GNOME
VI prefer KDE
GI always end up back there
FI HATE gnome
AI just kinda like GNOME...
FWith a passion
HLike I said, I've been waiting for a while now for a budgie version of Bazzite NVIDIA
FGnome2 is okay.
GIt's kinda hard not to like it when it's as polished as it is
AI mean, sure it takes a little longer to get features than KDE does but I find when it does get those features they're often significantly more polished
AEXACTLY
Ayou get it
GLol good minds think alike
HFMate 
WWhen I used gnome I found that I used 5-6 extensions to make it look and work like kde.... So in the end I just switched to KDE 
Athat's by far the main appeal for me. GNOME is just so goddamn polished. Yes features take a bit longer to get to it but it's one of those things where it's like "I know that when a feature DOES come to GNOME that it's going to be polished and it's going to just WORK"
HI know its hard, but outside of the linux world
FI just cant stand gnome. Its too restrictive for me
GThose few extensions are worth it for me to use gnome. They're a built in feature for the environment so I might as well use them
Hgnome is already knows as the "linux face"
AI like GNOME extensions
AI appreciate that I can very easily customize my desktop UI with just a few clicks
Alike that's just NEAT
VHonestly the thing I respect about GNOME is how it looks because with a few tweaks it does look REALLY good. But like, so does KDE so 
FIm setting up gridcoinresearch on my server. It’s a cryptocurrency based on boinc allowing a proof of work based blockchain with actual real benefit to the world
Hsadly you can't fix QT
AGNOME's visual consistency is unparalleled in Linux DE's tbh
GKDE Plasma has gotten a lot better and I consider it very good looking and polished too. No, my main issue is I much prefer GTK apps to Qt, and GNOME has a much more consistent visual design with its apps
VConsistently bad
Hand Kvantum is not a solution
Apretty much this yeah. I just like how GTK looks and it provides apps with a very visually consistent design language
VThe thing I cannot stand about GTK4 is how visually bloated it is
