This comment reads like you've never actually tried Gnome with proper extensions (like arc menu and dash-to-panel), because those aren't even comparable in quality. I mean that when comparing to KDE as well.
I want to love XFCE, but whisker-menu doesn't support opening it on meta key release, which is baffling to me. Also the lack of night mode, which redshift is just throwing a random program into the mix. Which if you don't mind that, then you wouldn't have a problem with Gnome extensions in the first place.
Install 10 Gnome extensions to get KDE Plasma but worse. Well to each their own I suppose. At least Gnome looks nice, I can't deny that. IMHO that is the one advantage they do have over KDE Plasma.
Yeah, if I can't use dash-to-panel, I'm not using GNOME lmao. It feels like such a basic feature and a complete oversight that it isn't part of GNOME on its own.
