Why are they doing this? Because they want to envolve and don't be stuck with old things. However, if they did the transition in a good way by giving the developers time to adapt, that I don't know

Well, most extensions still break on every GNOME major version. Some are actively maintained and will be updated quickly-ish, others not.
IMO if a lot of the small extensions were just integrated into GNOME, some of them could be a single toggle somewhere in the settings. Like a clipboard manager or Launch New Instance, or Wallpaper Switcher.
I like Vanilla GNOME. Nothing compares.

Laugh in Cinnamon..
I was grow up using windows xp and 7 btw.. XD
This is like the primary reason I use XFCE
It just works nicely and efficiently and you can customize it in every way possible. Hell you can change the compositor or even run a subset like xfce-panel.
The only real downside is XFCE doesn't have wayland support, which in of itself is already an arguable need.
GNOME is like using a chromebook which is insulting to the ability of a computer.
Is it just me who has never experienced any issues with gnome extensions whatsoever? Sure, a lot of them errored out and just wouldn't work, but it wouldn't affect my system.
I mean if you are running Debian you are a-ok. So that's nice. Debian 12 has Gnome 43 I believe. Nice and stable, no extensions breakage is gonna happen there.
