Ubuntu Plans to Ditch its 'Minimal' Install Option

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

How is "GNOME is bloat" an objective fact? Maybe to you GNOME is bloat because you don't use it. But they use GNOME, so it's not bloat to them.
Conversely, if they don't use XFCE, then having XFCE installed by default is a bloat to them.
Don't be so dense.
Pot, meet kettle.
