I moved away from Gnome to KDE for several years after Gnome 3 came out. Try as I might, I just couldn't get into other desktop environments (KDE, XFCE, LXDE, I tried quite a few). A few years ago I switched back to Mate and haven't considered leaving. It provides the functionality I need while staying out of my way, which is more or less the reason I can't move away from text editors despite their complete lack of coolness.
