Likewise.  I liked Gnome 2.  I don't like Gnome 3, and it's too heavy a
workload for my PCs.  I've said the same thing about inappropriate
tablet interface style.  And I don't like KDE.  But I went with the MATE
desktop, which is about as close as you can get to the old Gnome 2 as I
think you can get.

no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages

Next time your service provider asks you to reboot your equipment, ask
them to reboot theirs, first.
