Jesus, do the people who work on GNOME even like Linux?

Maybe they all use some BSD distro?

In Icaza's case I think he just always wanted to work for Microsoft. I don't know about the less famous developers though.

icaza hasn't dev or used gnome for like decades.... and i am not sure why you assume the intent of miguel like that.

Well he did, in the end until he quit Microsoft (and Linux) and moved to macOS/iOS and Swift development.
