You can't be serious about Gnome, the UI elements are all over the place, inconsistent styling, sizes, spacing, not to mention the system apps are inconsistent with each other.
Gnome is the most ghetto desktop environment out there.
I am serious! I really do think GNOME looks the best by default of the DEs I have used and seen.

I’m going to be honest, I have not noticed these things at all. But I am not a UI designer, and mostly look at these things from the perpective of a regular user. However, I have noticed those inconsistencies with Plasma. I’m not denying that there may be such inconsistencies in GNOME as well, but if they’re small enough that I don't notice them, then I’m fine with them. The most important thing for me is that the apps/components, individually, are easy to look at and interact with. I think GNOME does this well.
