>Sometimes if I have to use Linux, one of the most frustrating parts of the gnome file manager is how on some distros the path text input at the top is simply not there in some distros. It used to be there all the time. I don't know why this essential feature was removed/hidden behind impossible to find settings.

I only speculate. some distros like Ubuntu were undoing some GNOME feature removal shit because they were listening for user feedback, so the difference could be that some distros are shipping GNOME vanilla(as their big ego designer intended) and some are trying to undo some damage with patches , extensions and different defaults.



Does gnomes designer have a big ego? Could explain the poor usability


yes, only giant ego will explain defending of stupid ideas with stupid or fake arguments and never admitting your assumptions were wrong. My suspicion is this designers do not really use the products they design.
