ok first of all, happy holidays or christmas to everyone!! happy debian day! but anyway i just wanted to ask something, why does ubuntu use its own version of gnome?? (taskbar in desktop, material colors, etc) i know that even distros like pop os! or fedora use vanilla gnome so why would canonical change the settings of gnome?? i think ubuntus gnome is cute but vanilla is amazing and well at least they give you the freedom of changing desktop environment but still, i dont know why canonical would do that!!

    Consistency with their previous default desktop environment, Unity.
