Hum... it's not GNOME3 but gnome-shell what you don't like. 

And nope, as soon as I can customize some of the basics of the shell I'm 
fine. At the end of the day what I have used are programs (thunderbird, 
LibreOffice, Firefox...) not a desktop environment. And what's a desktop 
environment, by the way? "Something" that allows/facilitates you to run 
your preferred applications :-)

I can get used to the "new desktop paradigm" (or whatever they prefer to 
name it), because regardless what GNOME developers and we -plain users- 
say, we are still doing the same things in another way, I mean, there is 
nothing new nor revolutionary "per se" in the new shell. 

Don't be afraid: the jump is not that long as it first seems.
