I did not like the slowness and complexity of Gnome3 and have no idea which way it has gone since those first Fedora versions that used it.  At times I complain about Xfce, but most are minor or I have to learn a new tweak.

I found the Xfce community to be very friendly and receptive. One time I stumbled across an xfwm bug. I did put a bit of elbow grease into a reproducer, but it was fixed quickly after I reported it.

In contrast, my break with Gnome happened about a year after a release that suddenly decided that my MP3 player turned into an MTP device, instead of the usb-storage it always was. The reported bug gathered dust without a single response, for a year, when I discovered by accident that XFCE had no issues mounting the same player as usb-storage, while the Gnome desktop next to it insisted it was an MTP device.
