Novell took over Ximian - a gnome company. Then Suse - and tried to kill KDE
in Suse.
Redhat always was gnome shop for no good reasons at all. Also many KDE haters
there.
Debian used gnome in the past for licencing reasons. Today they should use KDE
for licencing reasons. No reason at all to use gnome.
Ubuntu uses just what debian uses. Because they are leeches.
If you want a free* system, gnome is not a choice.
*free as defined by FSF - unrelated to freedom,
