That is you compare a few Linux distros with Fedora and "this" is
something new to you.
It's not for Fedora users. So the question is still alive:

Why are you trying to change the Face and Character of Fedora instead

See above, and there is no new way yet. But people trying to make a
copy of Ubuntu or openSUSE out of Fedora.

Since you haven't noticed it in all that time, it looks like it can't
be that bad ;)
