Hi Erich ,
Sorry , I thought the primary focus was to find a new de to shift to .
Improving Gnome in terms of reducing resource usage (and in general ) seems pretty nice . I'd be happy to have another de I can work smoothly with :)
This might not be relevant but if you install pantheon de , you can switch to gnome on the logout screen (even if you didn't install it ) and it basically brings gnome shell with pantheon apps .
I felt it was a bit smoother than normal gnome ( I didn't test this extensively but everything seemed to work fine ) .Maybe this can help in some way ?
Thanks ,
Harsh

Hi Harsh,
I also lead Ubuntu Studio and we just moved away from Xfce to KDE
Plasma because we wanted a more-functional desktop for creative
professionals. The resource usage between Xfce and Plasma is neglegable
(about 50MB difference) and KDE is a better choice for graphics artists
(which Ubuntu Studio also covers.
I think you missed the point though: the goal is to help GNOME improve.
I've had conversations with people who want to see GNOME improve in
this regard and want to work with me in improving it. So, this isn't
about simply switching desktops, this is about helping another desktop
improve its situation. If Jam is to switch, it's going to GNOME, that
decision is already made. The "If" is what I'm working on, whether or
not to actually go through with it. If it does happen, the goal is to
improve GNOME. One can always install whatever desktop they want and do
"dnf groupinstall 'Audio Production'".
I hoep that clears things up, as I think you missed the point. :)
Erich
