I enjoy Gnome 3 with the right extensions. The compatibility changes every release and it's a nightmare, it's clear that the Gnome team wants customizability on paper but doesn't do a lot to make developer's lives easy. They are sort of big on the "Gnome way" and the "gnome look" and sort of look down on people who want to change it. It's a bit annoying, but a number of distros have done a lot of work making it more mainstream, and they've done a good job of it too. I'd never use vanilla Gnome 3, but with the right extensions, it's great.
Deepin was an OS I used extensively a while back. Being from china is a little worrisome, but the US is starting to invade privacy in many of the same ways, and it's not likely we will really escape it, no matter what we will do. I use primarily Debian and Ubuntu today, which are probably, relatively speaking, much safer. Supposedly Ubuntu now supports installing the Deepin desktop environment.
Deepin is absolutely beautiful, I have to admit. It's the kind of distro that would make Linux mainstream if it were a little more trusted worldwide.
