Why is this the sanest thing? There are many people that enjoy using gnome including myself. Don’t you think this is an extreme take for something that just doesn’t align with your views on how the Linux desktop should be?
a. Only about programs using libadwaita
b. About their opinion that just overriding the global style like in GTK3 was causing too many issues in apps defining their own widgets or CSS to be worth it.
IIRC they were willing to accept a contribution of a more advanced theming system (but building it themselves was not something they wanted to prioritise over other things), but lacking that they’d rather enforce using adwaita in libadwaita.
Fuck off with this hot-take shit. Gnome is fucking beautiful and powerful if you spend the 30 seconds necessary to find the necessary extensions to cater to your delicate sensibilities. After that - you’ll never have to worry about it ever again.

They have moved their Gnome specific stuff in GTK to a library called libawaita. You can easily use GTK without much Gnome specific stuff.

Gnome is extremely polished, well featured, stable and clean. It’s no doubt went it’s the default for most pro distros
