Could you give examples as to what is messy? I used gnome on a daily basis, as well as Windows 10/11, and occasionally MacOS. My experience is that gnome is consistent, consolidated and intuitive. While windows is all over the place, with at least two separate UIs with slightly different overlap in functionality.

Nagging update messages which won't disappear after clicking. Random window switch unresponsiveness/delay. Those are in Gnome, I have no such problem in KDE, I have a different set of issues.

Try opening top and moving your mouse around a lot. For me, CPU usage goes up to ~30%. This is on Fedora with pretty banal hardware. For extra fun, google "gnome-shell high cpu usage". That's just one example.

Gnome seems generally ok, but kind of old school win98 reliability wise. Well it crashed/BSOD, shrug, reboot and move on. Pretty much once a week I lose the cursor, focus is generally locked onto one gnome terminal, once I find it, I can exist the shell, which kills the window, which doesn't help, but I exit the next window window, and eventually I get my cursor back. Sometimes whenever I launch anything that uses OpenGL I just get a GLX failure. Sometimes I go to open a new window and it just won't map. Granted I open many terminals in a day, but it's still pretty disappointing. I get the "this application <FOO> has closed unexpectedly" about once a day.
