> He says that GNOME 3.x has been improving and that when pairing the desktop with the right extensions, it's a rather pleasant desktop. He specifically points out Frippery and GNOME Tweak Tool as making a huge difference to his experience.

Did they waste all their work? Mostly. Did they waste the time of the people that had to undo their work? Definitely.
