It's less "if you dont like it go elsewhere" and more "if all you're going to do is bitch and not actually do anything constructive then we probably won't mourn your disappearance". We already get an awful lot of feedback about Unity, Ubuntu and all the bits and pieces around it. I'm not saying we don't need more feedback, just that the feedback needs to be targeted to the right place, at the right time and in the right language. For example. A mail to the Ubuntu-UK mailing list saying "Unity sucks, I'm switching to Mint" isn't even remotely useful to anyone at all. A mail to the Unity-design list saying "I've noticed that the icons react in a way that doesn't match the design" or "I've installed Ubuntu for a number of users and they've all commented on how hard it is to access their devices, I suggest the following changes" perhaps with a picture to explain how it can be improved, is likely to be more useful. Making Ubuntu better requires work on all sides, firing hate messages into the sky doesn't work at all.
