Tell me why someone should migrate to a DE with steep learning curve when this person is already pretty productive with a “Windows 3.1 nostalgia” DE.

That’s the beauty of open source software: you don’t have to! But tell me why would a newcomer want to have either ‘help from 80s’ interface or a powerful indeed interface but with a gazillion of bells and switches? That’s where Gnome shines. I can recommend it to anyone who is new. A non-tech friend got it with no training at all. He just said it’s like a tablet. Which is not a bad thing, actually. It’s simple enough for a newcomer to learn quickly. But also powerful enough for someone with 20 years of Linux experience to use daily.
