A big "thank you" to the Gnome developers for adding the classic mode. It has been sorely missing in previous releases.

Just curious: You could do the same using fallback mode in previous versions.

Do you like classic mode because it is actually supported? Or do you like it because in fallback mode you still had to make a few changes (default fallback mode: "GNOME 3 without hardware acceleration")? Something else?
