Because they want to ruin your computer experience so that

a) You become less powerful
b) They become more necessary

c) Everyone bows to the great Gnome developers.

Not talking about Canonical.

And I actually believe there is something more nefarious at work here, 
something akin to "destroying something from within".

If Linux users once were the bastion of freedom, well...

They are rapidly turning into slaves I think.

I guess that's too opinionated for this list.

I just watch it happen with horror, that's all.

They wanted to remove the buttons because you can click buttons and that 
was not the point of their operating system, something as functional as 
that.

So they decided to remove the minimize button and give you an 
alternative in the form of right click.

Since the lady first testing it thought she could live with it, they 
went ahead with it.
