Still using k9mail since fairemail causes me oom issues.

I still find myself looking for other emails tho since i need something that supports mailing list stuff better.

yes, because the rest of gnome is trash too

S76 already stated that maintaining the tiling extension for gnome was more effort then it was worth

Gnome upstream is notoriously hard to work with and will insult it’s users and make up bogus reasons to reject perfectly good feature requests and bugreports.

Gnome is slow as balls. On low end hardware gnome bloody chugs compared to KDE let alone the “light weight” DEs.

Gnome is insanely slow to implement many features.

Gnome is hostile to working with upstream wayland protocols like window decore.

S76 want’s their desktop to look and work a certain way, and making gnome look/work like that is difficult especially when upstream is not prepared to play ball.

Gnome devs have insulted S76 devs in public forums, have complained about S76 not funding gnome’s A11y efforts despite S76 donating quite a lot to gnome over the course of 5 years, $100’000 https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/xwtns5/does_it_seem_like_gnome_wants_system_76s_cosmic/ira4e8o/

Personally, not needing to deal with gnome developers alone is a feature. Rust is just a tool which makes developing your own DE, compositor included, very easy.
