> FOSS is doomed since it doesn't match the economic realities of producing high-quality end-user software.
Doomed how? There are more and more high-quality, end-user FOSS apps. The world does not revolve around Canonical and Ubuntu. Simply change distros, problem solved.
Either you, Canonical, or both are on drugs.
> There's no point in stagnating and sticking with gnome.
If the options are "stagnating" with Gnome, or going over 9000 steps backwards with Unity, I'm choosing to stagnate.
> If you really care, get involved.
Why? What's the incentive for me? Canonical has continuously proven to not care about it's current users.
> Write some code. Ubuntu is foss.
FFS, this is the same old tired propaganda of FOSS-apologists, aren't you ashamed of regurgitating it?
FOSS is doomed since it doesn't match the economic realities of producing high-quality end-user software.
