It's fallen a long way for you. Somewhat humerous as that's exactly how it was for me. I was a BIG fan for a while, then just other things improved so much while it stayed the same and I fell out of love.

My expectations and tastes in distros have changed a lot over time.

ROSA was a huge disappointment and could have been so much more but nothing has really changed as i tried it again last night.

Have they fixed the bug with Firefox always reverting back to "Ctrl+Tab cycles through tabs in recently used order" being checked every time you start the browser yet?

Other than my Void VM, I really haven't been playing with anything in a couple months now. I'm starting to think that noone can figure out how to release a distro that's worth the time to look at, just all "look mom, I changed the wallpaper and a default option, it's a new OS!!!!" distro's. Even some that used to be good (neptune) seems to have now decided it's too hard to offer real usefulness, and it's easier just to offer nothing but a change of name and wallpaper.
