Even more surprised that people actually use it.

This classic from 2012 nails it!!

I recently installed it in a Debian 13 system and it's truly a GUI designed by people who view their users as total idiots. It's developed from a proprietary mindset and is systemd focused, only a masochist would waste time trying to get it working on a systemd-less Linux distribution - bearing in mind that the upstream are constantly working against you.

Gnome works in excalibur. If you want to try it in freia (currently in testing) there's a netinstall iso, so you could install it to a spare partition or into a virtual machine. And if you do that, please let us know what you find. Thanks.
