   Something horrible must have happened, if macOS users are curling shell scripts from the internet to make their desktops more like Linux.

      Uncomfortable, but true.

      GNOME has reached maturity and hasn't changed significantly in years, while Apple is busy destroying macOS.

         Really? GNOME is not what I would recommend to people.

         I should applaud their efforts, and I get that much of it is voluntary, but their bugs are numerous, notable and the way they interact with the rest of the universe (both people with accessibility needs, and the wider developer ecosystem on linux) can most accurately be described as arrogant and hostile.

         KDE is the bastion of maturity here, and I would agree that it is mature.

         I’m not sure how the love for GNOME continues when KDE (while not my personal choice) has clearly been running circles around it since GNOME3 and the gap has only widened since that change too.

            Because KDE looks and feels straight out of 2010 compared to GNOME? GNOME just suffers by leaving some (what should be integrated) features to its shitty extension system.
