I almost agree. I dislike the full screen overlay you get with the start button. I'm all for animation, but the fade and slide of all the windows is objectively bad. The full screen nature of the menu is also full screen metro levels of bad - and even MS ditched that. I personally get "dash to doc", "activities configurer" (remove activities button), "pixel saver" + Albert - binding it to the start button. This is the minimum I need to make it a functionally intuitive experience. |

With a Dock I can just All -> Search -> Click and for my favs it's just "Click". Most people (like non Developers open at most 3-4 programs, all of them fit into a dash.
When I'm developing on my day to day job I barly need anything from the "All" panel. Neither in Linux nor in Mac. I mostly open IntelliJ, Chrome, and the Terminal and an Email program. Editor like sublime will be openend via a Terminal, Music program will run in background and could be started via my "Play" Button (on both systems), so basically Gnome lacks that. Basically I prefer Fedora but somehow I still use Ubuntu, since it's just install and it works like I like it and Fedora takes a few step to make it usable, so mostly a "foolness" issue. Ah and before 22 when connecting external monitors with different screen sizes the experience just sucked (not a problem anymore tough). Ah and also the Menubar on Gnome3 is way too thick. I mean some programs don't need that. like firefox. it's unnecessary since the X button could be added to the tab menu and the name of the application is displayed between "activities", so why do I need a 22pixel height menu bar ? Just to display an X?
Edit: Don't say that extensions can do that, since they are broken after every .2 release. Extensions are an excuse for not shipping useful features.
