Description: As Gnome has decided against following libre, free principles the desktop-environment has becoming a risk for the privacy and freedom for users. Meaning that the desktop-environment with all basic packages should be removed. Of course the final decision is up to the community and the development-team. Followed up are more reasons for the insights:

* Bloated with questionable dependencies (including mandatory systemd)
* Using proprietary services as high risk for freedom and privacy for users (https://i.stack.imgur.com/yZcyV.png)
* Coming up with questionable and vague principles, against software-freedom in a whole (inclusion of flatpak and flathub as so-called standardization for distributions, discussions about proprietary software included within the software-center)

I haven’t check them, but they look fishy. Take it as a reminder, this is far from being urgent IMO.

ffmpegthumbnailer does not support some media formats since they do not appear in its configuration file ffmpegthumbnailer.thumbnailer which can be found in /usr/share/thumbnailers/.
