Could I just ask what your point is here? I’m refuting the baseless assertion that Gnome is an extremely buggy DE.
C’mon I never said it was buggy, I just said it was slow. Every other DE typically launches applications faster than GNOME. It also forces pointless animations down people’s throat, and no that toggle under settings doesn’t remove all animations.
If you don’t like the workflow then fair enough,
It’s not about the workflow, GNOME has the potential to be the one and only DE that actually makes it so big companies start developing proprietary applications for Linux without the constant fear of the “floor shifting bellow their feet” making it pointless to develop for Linux. Unfortunately GNOME insists on reinventing the wheel about every two years in the quest for their vision… and we get a perpetually half made DE out of that. The desktop is more than tested and everyone already tried all possible iterations of it, just get over it and so something useful with your funding.
What’s the point is in having a well funded team when you want to change network settings and you’ve to go through three different kinds of UIs and applications all of them with their own particular style? Not even Windows is that bad - at least the old-style Control Panel has all the settings (including very advanced ones) that Linux never managed to get into a SINGLE and CONSISTENT UI. The same applies for a lot of other cases.
GNOME is actually properly designed (from a UI standpoint) but very bad from an UX one. It hides things from you (including the decision of removing desktop icons that could’ve been simply a toggle like in macOS) and proceeds to work against you by blocking your workflow/actions with graphic animations instead of getting to the results.
