      When it’s an enhancement?

        Enhancement? No, everything I have a problem with is explicitly intended behavior and GNOME devs are infamous for their everyone is stupid except me mentality

        Edit, found a neat lil’ example:

        Does Gnome/GTK have an issue board where users vote on issues?

        Free software development is not a democracy, and does not get driven by polls. Features and bugs are introduced by those who show up, within a community that works towards a shared goal.

        I don’t believe the intentional behavior is desirable and would like to see what other users think.

        That’s not how anything works.

          That’s a dick way of saying fuck off but I mean they do provide a free service. If they have a vision and don’t want to deal with random people whining about it that’s their prerogative. Same as yours to find that utterly insufferable.

            They do provide a free service (GTK’s file chooser), one that I find horrible and inconsistent (as per the thread) and intentionally so (on issues tangential to example that I found, although the proposed configurable behavior would be nice) - so I won’t even entertain the thought of trying and contributing to it, as it has been suggested.

            I don’t know what is insufferable about that, other than the initial criticism…
