Most of the problem I have it is with the imperialistic culture that came with it and with the serious security bugs that they keep sweeping under the rug.
It is easier to configure and is convenient to have one holistic system in a lot of ways, but...
They pushed for Gnome to have a hard dependency on it so that everyone would be _forced_ to use it instead of just letting it be accepted by merits.
They have a track record of labeling serious bugs as non-issues, ignoring them, or just not filing them as CVEs. Serious issues keep coming up.
I don't think the code is high-quality, but even more than that I have a problem with the people being controlling, dismissive, and deceptive.
