Unfortunately, this kind of culture where you joyfully screw over your real users to chase the approval and benefit of some spherical user in a vacuum that you would like to cater to has become endemic in the free software world. It probably started with GNOME 3 (deliberately strip-mined of functionality, actively hostile to customisability, wasteful of screen space, all for the sake of chasing some HCI-prophesied transition to mobile touch devices which never came for desktop Linux), but was perfected by Mozilla in the name of security.
GNOME highlights most of the worst possible characteristics open source has, especially their last 15 years. Narcissism, opaque decisions, politics, virtue signaling, 4chan obsession, and toxic behavior describe just the past few months of that project. It's high time to cancel GNOME.
