What was the last good version of GNOME (or the first good one)?

>>105832482 (OP)
gnome 2 answers both questions.

>>105832482 (OP)
hmmm the current one is pretty good, I'd say

Gnome 2. After the Gnome 3 release like 80% people uninstalled it and went to KDE instead, somehow Gnoime didn't go much downhill and regaind stability after a while. Considering ebussy joined gnome and is mentally ill it shows you shouldn't use it for good

>GNOME 3 introduces the infamous shell grid design
>GNOME 3.10 introduces client-side decorations
>GNOME 3.16 removes transparency from shell elements
>GNOME 3.32 makes all icons flat
>GNOME 40 adopts a Mac dock layout
>GNOME 42 introduces libadwaita with locked down theming
>Newest GNOME kills off the age-old Cantarell font, someone was so aggressive about it that they even posted merge requests to remove all references of the font retroactively in GTK3
What's the next great design idea they have in store?

They'll create their own GWayland subset of the Wayland protocols that's even worse than Wayland used to be and try to force it as a de facto standard.

The GNOME1.x series was adequate.
