I'm using Gnome 3.22.0 on Debian Stretch, and I have a working weather extension. What version of GnomeShell are you using and on what distro? I agree with difficulty adding some apps to favourites, but otherwise, GnomeShell is maturing nicely. The top panel can be customized through extensions - maybe you should visit https://extensions.gnome.org/ and view what's available to customize panels.
