For fuck's sake, can this debate die already? It's one those made up words that no-one agrees on the meaning of, so people with the exact same views about the real world will fight to the death over it, because they're using completely different definitions of the word.

It used to just mean "progressive" with a positive connotation, then it got oversaturated and some progressives started using it to describe the kinds of people who fake having progressive ideals just to make themselves look good or sell shit. Then conservatives started using it to describe all progressives again, but this time with a negative connotation. Then some of those conservatives started using it to describe literally anything they don't like.

The problem is that the meaning's changed so fast that whatever meaning you're using, chances are there's someone around you who defines it differently, leading to a lot of pointless conflict that could be resolved if we just all agreed on a meaning, or stopped saying the fucking word.

From the data, it looks like average lengths have gone down since about 2004, so this year may just be an anomaly.

For me, it just came down to how unintuitive and slow Windows's desktop environment is. Setting up the most basic customizations requires going through like 15 sub-menus or dealing with the registry. Also, GNOME and KDE are just so much prettier than Windows's desktop environment.
