Some stayed here. With Fedora. I did, Some changed changed their DE.

I moved to Fedora from several months with CentOS as a desktop. Eventually I wanted to do things its ageing core doesn't want to do. I'd tried every version of Gnome 3 since its release and been seriously annoyed. Not because it wasn't Gnome 2, but just because I don't like needing to throw my mouse all over the screen and I don't agree with their assumptions about keyboard use. F18's Gnome Shell works for me, and rather well, only because a few extensions have matured enough to eliminate most of my annoyances. If I had to use a default Gnome Shell, I would not.

I grew up in Linux with Slackware, for several versions over the years from 3, I think, to 12. Plus Red Hat, Suse, etc. Also played with early and current versions of Ubuntu, plus Mint. Debian is not my style.

Display quality, font rendering, and on-screen responsiveness are more important to me than a DE. Those qualities are more important to me than the DE's design. (After all, they're all more alike than different: Click on icon, stuff happens.)
