My first distro was Debian and I loved Gnome so much that I’ve never gotten around to trying anything else despite being on my 3rd distro hop.
I’m an old head and a firm believer in keyboard first computing. And I think an OS’s job is to be invisible until I need it. Gnome get’s out of my way until I summon whatever I need from it with the keyboard. For someone who’s labored under Windows for so long, Gnome is like escaping Plato’s cave.
Try KDE sometime if you are keyboard first. I’ve found it has more keybinding opportunities than gnome had (~5 years ago, so things might be better. Knowing gnome though, I wouldn’t hold my breath 😅)
