Before Gnome 3, I used Gnome for years. They really burned a lot of users with that reduction in functionality and consistently user-hostile attitude.&lt;p&gt;The closest modern desktop environment to Gnome 2 is KDE’s Plasma. It’s easy to use out of the box and doesn’t require any configuration (unless you want to do that kind of thing, and then it’s available — unlike in Gnome 3+).</text></comment>
