GNOME on the other hand, out of the box is very unfamiliar to non-GNOME users and much of its functionality and benefits are hidden. That's the main issue with GNOME Shell, people aren't getting a tutorial on how they are supposed to exploit it to their benefit. They need to start using it exclusively for weeks and months, and attempt to think creative ways to modify it to serve their workflow. Once they do, there is no going back, in my opinion.
GNOME is meant to be used with the keyboard more. While many people wrongly accuse it of being a tablet interface, this is far from the truth. It is more like a hybrid between the traditional DE and something like i3/Sway. The search is fast using the super+a couple of letters, and workspaces are unlimited and easy to access and configure. Who needs a taskbar when you can just use the keyboard?
I just love modern GNOME. I have been using it on Wayland for some time and i can't go back, it is really, really good. KDE on the other hand, is slow, and clunky. Fine if you prefer to keep working like it is still 95, and pretty, but that's about it.
