The boat is not sinking, but the reputation of Gnome has definitely sunk, and
as a consequence, so has Linux.
The next version of Gnome must include "locally" the most frequently downloaded
tweak tool softwares. By including the top 10 into the basic gnome tweaktool
offering, extra security is provided by reducing web access. I consider the
tweaks as patches, to make Gnome more usable on laptops and desktops. Without
the tweaks from the website, would KDE be the best choice?
Re clearing security patches, prioritize them, concentrate on the top 20, and
get them implemented. Then repeat the action until they are none. It could
very well be that publicizing that process would allow Gnome to regain its
reputation, and also Linux.
