As of 2015, critical reception is much more positive.[48] Debian, a Linux distribution that had historically used GNOME 2, switched to Xfce when GNOME 3 was released. However, Debian readopted GNOME 3 in time for the release of Debian 8 "Jessie".[49][48] Linus Torvalds, the creator of the Linux kernel, switched back to GNOME 3 in 2013.[48] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNOME#GNOME_3 Fedora and RHEL also use gnome 3 by default. Gnome 3 was kinda annoying but has improved with every release. If you use the keyboard shortcuts, virtual desktops and some nice extensions it's a nice DE. And with proper icons (numix) it also looks great.
