Afaik there are compatibility issues between Gnome 2 and Gnome 3 fallback
mode. You can't do all you used to be able to do. I think a lot of plugins
for the panel will be missing, etc.
If you were on Fluxbox, that's nice for you. Changes within Gnome will not
affect you that much. But if
Easy Youtube Downloader and Linterna Mágica work
just fine; I just hope they keep on working.
The problem I experiences here every day:
Many websites with Flash video do not work with any of those Flash
Replacements / Downloaders.
Just to name a few:
- www.golem.de (a german IT site),

Probably wouldn't be difficult to find video URLs there and make them
work with a video downloader. (I won't do this now due to another
project.)
Most videos in the www are provided as flash-only

That might be possible but I lack the skills and knowledge to do so.
I was just testing a lot of my favourite websites with the various Flash
replacements / alternatives available and most of

I am afraid that there is no documentation on how to modify live CDs. I
mostly opened up the ISO from the Live CD, added my content and burned the
ISO. This almost always works.
Frankly I see no big difference between having a taylored installable media

Debian switched to Xfce because they want a full desktop to fit on a CD. It
has nothing to do with GNOME 3 sucking. You perfectly know since it is
explained in length in the page your first link points to.
KDE is different and you have to learn its ways, but isn't also Gnome3
different and you just have to learn its ways?
For me the problem is that I don't like either Gnome3's nor KDE's ways (in
fact I think I hate more KDE than I do Gnome3). I like Gnome2's.
MATE is a fork of Gnome2 yes,
you don't have to write the whole OS again with each copy/download.
I think it's an OK analogy since you don't have to design the whole device
either with each manufacture. With hardware, the design is something like 99%
of the costs.
Thanks Darksoul71, those are a lot of ideas.
The apt-get update upgrade install is exactly what i want to avoid. Bandwidth
is of concern and reusing is a preferred option. Changes made are
considerable. So, the installable media of in-use OS will still be better
than basic iso. Diskspace
The problem with Gnome 3 is that the Gnome developers are very stubborn and
refuse to accept any feedback from the community with no real clear vision
for the future besides wanting to do their own OS. Nautilus in 3.6 is thought
of to be a mess and that is why Linux Mint is forking Nautilus
Since the shift to Gnome 3 I have tested Xfce, LXDE and E17. I like E17 best
despite it being a bit less stable.

Wow, a lot of GNOME 3 bashing...
You might want to try using the Clearwaita (Clearlooks) theme which has
GTK+v2 and GTK+v3.
I'm using Trisquel 5.5 (and I have Xfce installed) and it works fine.
