          I have been out of the loop with Gnome for a while (to the point I can barely make my way through Gnome3). I'm thinking of installing a Gnome-based distro just so that I can check things out, but I don't know which one does the best job integrating Gnome. I have my eyes on Fedora (mostly because of my developer background), but are there better choices?

            Also, "GTK+ Scene Graph! The GSK" and "Google Online Accounts"

              I am mostly interested in improvements to the Wayland backend in GTK.

              But GNOME should look at something like a Intent API or Share API as is used on Android.
              So you can easily share things on the Internet with your friends.

              Also a cloud API so you can easily sync with Google Drive, Microsoft OneCloud, Apple iCloud, Dropbox, etc.

                If you prefer a rolling-release distribution, Manjaro GNOME offers a good vanilla version.

                  In case I wasn't clear enough before, there is a "Kit" missing after "GTK+ Scene Graph", that's what the K in GSK means. Also, it's not "Google Online Accounts" but "GNOME Online Accounts"

                    Fedora Workstation + extensions is probably your best bet for a good experience. For a more "traditional" experience, I recommend

                    Dash To Dock
                    Applications Menu
                    Places Status Menu
                    And enable the Minimize / Maximize buttons in gnome-tweak-tool.
                    All opinions are my own not those of my employer if you know who they are.
