There has been a massive debate with Unity and Gnome 3, without shame I use Marmite to explain this: You either love it or you hate it and want to kill it with fire. (Yes, I did just use a British reference along with a meme in this article)
Added site name to start.
Ubuntu's share had been decreasing pre-Unity.
Switched to Fedora myself, got fed up with the buggy Unity and the so-so Gnome Fallback mode, and just wanted a system that ran faster.
I wasn't new to Fedora though, I've been using it for 3 years alongside Ubuntu.
ubuntu is the onlythng keeping linux based systems relevant in the real world.
its the mainstream linux distro that actually holds market share.
I use/used all 3 flavors of OS and (windows , Linux(ubuntu,fedora,gnome,mint .suse),osx) cant say I never had an open mind.
and I prefer windows just for how easy and simple it is to use, and if you aren't the common idiot you rarely have problems.
ive had more stress trying to use osx, cause it sucks and its incompatible with a bunch of files and file systems that im used to.
linux is decent but going into elevated privileged and getting somethings to run can be stressing.
