Said that I will not recommend Gnome 3 to anyone but it has two main points over the other competitors:
- Full support to Wayland;
- Full support to HiDpi monitors.
WM and Tiling WM are always welcome, those stuff are great and I love theme, I am always tempted to switch to one of theme definitively. I loved one called Echinus it was one among the few that permitted to you to minimize a window on a panel (basically an hybrid DE) and it was easy to modify like I3wm because didn't require to know haswell, lisp, lua or any other script language.
To close, many people love Gnome 3 and I am happy for them because I am happy with my choice!
