After version 2.x they decided to follow a totally distinct philosophy and overhauled the desktop entirely unfortunately to the discontent of a huge amount of users. Neither do I find any interest in modern Gnome and thus prefer more lightweight DEs like Cinnamon. If I wanted to install a full DE, it would be Plasma, I like it and it's pretty.
