Gnome 3 is still Gnome. Both MATE and Cinnamon which came years after
Gnome 3 via Gnome-Shell, are reactionary for self-interest because
these DE can easily reproduced through Gnome-Shell extensions meaning
they will become irrelevant in a future.

Your look in a crystal ball is far away from reality like the topic
himself.
Pls, give more to laugh.....
....and stay close to facts instead of posting your personal
perspective.
This doesn't help us really.
As a former mate maintainer for fedora and very closed to mate upstream,
i prefer a change to KDE now, because it is more stable than gnome-shell
and has a great and stable developer base.
