Personally I think Gnome jumped the shark years ago with their 'we know best'
attitude. These days I use a simplified debian install, with openbox as both
the window and session manager. Apart from a few gtk based apps, I don't touch
Gnome at all.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
So now I'm running Gnome Classic (no
effects).
You're aware that GNOME Classic soon or later will be dropped? Last time
I tested GNOME3 IIRC "Classic" had another name and needed more
resources than GNOME2.
I switched to Xfce, for older installs it's a good replacement for
GNOME2, for new installs Xfce and GNOME apps won't work together, since
font and background colors sometimes are painful, LXDE might be the
better choice nowadays.
YMMV!
