What do you think is the venn diagram of people who say, “GNOME doesn’t listen to what users actually need? How many users change the default settings?” and “Any metrics or telemetry are inherently evil and must be avoided at all costs!”
To be clear, I'm very cautious when it comes to metrics or telemetry. But at the same time, I understand that GNOME *literally cannot measure* how many people change any settings, which is always the argument for GNOME doing something differently.
“Everyone installs X extension!” Do they? How can we know that?
“Everyone changes Y setting!” Oh really? How can we validate that?
“Everyone wants GNOME to work like Z!” Oh, I would love to see the user research data!
