But I don't want third-party extensions, I want a DE that comes with a first-party system tray

Ok cool thats what you want, fair enough. We, as in Gnome users, don't mind third party extensions for features we want, and that's also fair enough. Every linux user has the option to use whatever DE/WM they want. This freedom is what we fight for.

We, as in the whole linux community have big enough fights outside our community, the last thing we need is quarrels on the inside. "Yes you can use whatever you want do whatever you want", "Ok cool I'm gonna use this then", "NOO YOU HAVE TO USE THIS ARGHHHGH". It's pathetic.

I don't want a DE cluttered with 10k possible options which led to possible unstability. I want a stable DE and the ability to change it exactly how i want it.

The stability of KDE is there, but Gnome is much better. Good that we have the options
