I believe relatively few people actually *despise* Gnome, but there are pretty valid a reasons a lot of people dislike it. Gnome (as a project) can be very polarizing at times, especially when there are issues concerning compatibility with other projects. I think that is where the majority of the ire Gnome receives comes from; the “not a bug, won’t fix” type things that are way too common.
That’s why I referenced the blog post I linked previously, because something needs to change. I’m not sure exactly what, but there’s definitely a deep-rooted problem with the project’s culture inhibiting healthy collaboration with the greater foss community.
