It's like using MacOS- there is a set of limited utility it provides, and anything else must be achieved externally, ie- with another DE, WM, or in terminal.

For very basic desktop usage, GNOME 3 does about 65% of what I need. Because it's Linux, I can have TTYs that run KDE, i3, or more customized shells that accomplish the rest.

Not doing this would be an exercise in learned helplessness, which is exactly what I chose Linux to get away from.
