You are not the only one. This is exactly how I feel.

But GNUstep is ... not great. I want it to be! But it needs a lot of work on the interface side.

Judging by your comments, you seemed to have talked to the GNUstep maintainers, but they haven't been receptive to your ideas.

May I propose a fork? How about SiDESTEP ® for the project name?

No one ever spoke to me and I am the lead. Also SIDESTEP has been taken by another project. :)
Email me... anyone is free to join at any time. The whole project would appreciate the help.
I am already on the mailing list (and I even backed the failed Kickstarter :'( ).

My issue is it needs an entirely new UI, and the last time that was brought up it was clear nobody active wanted to do that.
