Gnome removed solid-color backgrounds based on what developer's friends use

Gnome devs don’t really like solid background colours. the cli is so much more practical, user friendly, and follows headless ui system guidelines.

Also you can call to your inner geekness when discovering this easter egg. All fun!

I'm really not sure if you're being sarcastic or genuine.

Obviously, if you're being genuine, you shouldn't ever wonder why no one uses Gnome.

And if you're being sarcastic, well then... carry on! :)

Thanks, I’m afraid my Sarcastic level was on extra-high mode :/

I loved gnome, but since moved on to xfce.

Edit: I still love gnome, just bring the goddamn solid background colours back
