And Gnome looks very nice

gnome looks like an ipad alternate UI made for kids.

    That's why I like it) Simple, accessible, big buttons, high-quality icons. Personally I use KDE when on GNU/Linux, but I definitely see what in GNOME would appeal to people sharing a computer with grandparents or children, or people who value design aesthetics more than extra functionality.

    I am 100% supportive of Gnome users and devs, and its right to exist. My opinion is that it looks the way it does and I wanted to share it. Some people prefer it for various reasons, and I think the reasons why I dislike it is why people like it.

    I'll say one thing as a positive; at least it's doing something different, which is nice. I just don't like the different that it's doing.

    it's near perfect for them. fewer options, less things to mess up, and the big fat buttons for the few things they might want to run (and everything else tucked out of the way).
