Slowly opening menus, slowly spinning desktop cubes, hover and wait before continuing, splash screens and other animations that delay me doing something "make it work better"?
I agree. Having said that: if Gnome wants to target the power user, with the latest high-end video hardware, the kind who follows the latest UI trends, then I see nothing wrong with that, with Gnome becoming a boutique, specialty UI that targets a specific userbase.
Sadly, I expect that Fedora at some point will become exclusively Gnome and KDE, because only these stacks will support Wayland, in order to ditch X, and also target the same userbase. This won't happen anytime soon, but it will happen.
