Gnome does not radically change their design all the time.
The last time they did that was Gnome 3, which came out 13 years ago, and how it was going to work was showcased 16 years ago.
And you may think it was change for the sake of change, but I'd disagree. The workflow is amazing. Using anything else just feels clunky to me now.
The changes made in Gnome were based on UX usability studies, not just changing shit for the sake of changing it.
You're mistaking your dislike of Gnome not operating like a traditional windows-like UX for it being objectively bad.
I'm of the opinion that Microsoft didn't actually invent the perfect UX in the early 90s, and we therefore should not be bound to those UX ideas.
