Every time I try GNOME I get very confused about what they're training to achieve. I don't like a lot of basic default settings, a story in itself. But the worst part is that they can only be changed via advanced tooling not installed by default (extensions, GNOME tweak). How is that user friendly?

Completely agree, I understad the power of gnome extensions and why some people love them, but they shouldn't be needed for basic things like showing minimize buttons, tray icons, etc. KDE also has widgets, but those add extra functionality or alternatives to what plasma already has.

Your basic things are another’s bloat. From that perspective Gnome hits just fine.
