I'm with you. Over the years Gnome pushed me away with the ambitious but undesired UX.

It reminded me of M$ forcing Windows 8 tiles.

I'm just happy that linux gives me plenty of options for distros and desktops. I've never even considered gnome a problem because I just don't use it.

I have the opposite sentiment.

Gnome enabled me to finally switch to linux on a tablet pc (cant justify owning a desktop, and got tired of laptop ergonomics). It started to come together in the past year or so between gnome 40 and adwaita.

I do think some of the moee familiar desktop paradigm extensions (dash to dock) should be enabled by default though.
