To make myself clear : I acknowledge the enormous design work that has been done by the Gnome team, and I admit that when what you want to do is what the Gnome team wanted you to do, it works very well.
But when you want to do anything your own way (on your own damn computer), then basically all hell breaks loose.

I generally like GNOME's design philosophy. A few times I have been annoyed at basic functionality being hidden and only accessible via command line config changes, which reminded me of editing the Windows registry back in the 1990s :). But I'm still overall very happy with it after 15+ years or so of use.

But regardless where you stand, some of the funding is in support of general open source desktop work, e.g., in the context of the FreeDesktop initiative.
