If you've ever used MacOS you'd recognize modern Gnome as a bastardized and near useless derivative of the Mac UI that can't figure out whether it wants to be a touch UX, a traditional desktop UX, wastes screen real estate with abandon, and has even fewer options of customization, along with a developer community even more tyrannical with the "we know best" mentality. (Tell us how you really feel about Gnome, Stormcrow!)
Edit to add: Luckily in Linux-land, BSD land, etc the UI is also user selectable so no one is really "stuck" with Gnome. You can ignore it, get rid of it, etc.
PS. Luckily we have choice or is that an issue now too?

It may be helpful to purge pulseaudio and/or delete all hidden config files in the user directory.

Dunno. In Windows machine in office, I use notepad++. No matter Gedit, Pluma, Xed, or this new Gnome Text Editor, none of them support a switch of text encoding AFTER a file is opened and user finds the text garbled. They all seem to think it is good enough for someone to re-navigate in open file dialog, pick out the file again, select text encoding there, AND REPEAT the whole procedure if this try doesn't work. I guess they all think UTF-8 is the present and future thus we don't need to care the past archives.

Both sides work hard to keep the Linux desktop share at 1%.
