Gnome desktop paradigm is easily the best one on the market since it's the only one that was designed with the use of both mouse and keyboard as human interface devices unlike the paradigms of tiling window managers (just the keyboard) and macOS/Windows (just the mouse).

If you're a poorfag running 15 year old device it's not going to work for you, it's clearly stated on Gnome's website. I use a modern ultrabook with it (both docked with a secondary screen) and on battery and it gets great battery life, despite the fact I fully acknowledge that using a more ~lightweight~ desktop could've improved it. 14 hours of normal use and 8 hours of intensive use out of a 72Wh battery allows me to use it for the entire day without sweating.
Unlimited workspaces is a great feature, especially on a multimonitor setup where only the main screen gets "multiple workspaces" while the rest work like auxiliary workspaces with static content.
Being able to launch an application, look for files, browse for contacts, use the calculator from the "Super" key menu (Winkey) is great. So is the mac-like "Overview" mode accessible from the same key that allows you to switch windows quicker than alt-tabbing.
And Gnome is the only one that's graphically polished. You might not care about that but I and many other people do. Even non-gnome applications like chrome look native on it.

Unfortunately /g/ is full of childish contrarians who absolutely despise anything that's not familiar to them hence the popularity of garbage windows clones like cinnamon and KDE

Gnome is logical, designed from the ground up to allow for better productivity, completely disregarded users "used" to a paradigm for the sake of making one that's better. Gnome is the default on the big four (ubuntu, debian, fedora, rhel/centos), it is the one getting the most attention from users and developers and it's performance is getting better with every release. It's THE gnu/linux DE.
