See https://tails.boum.org/support/faq/#gnome

We had users ask for LXDE, XFCE, MATE, KDE, and so on, but we are not
going to change desktop. According to us, the main drawback of GNOME is
that it requires quite a lot of resources to work properly, but it has
many advantages. The GNOME Desktop is:

- Well integrated, especially for new Linux users.
- Very well translated and documented.
- Doing relatively good regarding accessibility features.
- Actively developed.
- Well maintained in Debian, where it is the default desktop

We invested quite some time in acquiring GNOME knowledge, and switching
our desktop environment would require going through that process again.

We are not proposing several desktop environments to choose from because
we want to limit the amount of software included in Tails.
