Feakster:
Gnome works great on Debian Stretch, But within the original OFFICIAL release notes for Debian Buster they say it will no longer work with the Gnome desktop...
(It has to do with the new MIT wayland changes)
Some have argued they can make it work, but if the official distribution writers themselves say it will not work.... I am not one to argue with them.
Mate works with Buster and is supposed to be based on Gnome..... Gnome does work still on many Distro's IF you must use it.
Gnome was my first Favorite Linux Desktop (and still is) but Debian is my preferred "Cleanest" operating system.
Update :
Apparently they have the Gnome desktop working now on the mainstream Debian.
But immediately following Busters release there was notice that Gnome did not get along with the new 'Wayland'
I spent a whole day looking through their release notes back then and did not discover much.
I am really glad they resolved the conflict... !
