I've been using GNOME 3 since 3.0 and I don't even use extensions. I do not understand what you mean by "unusable". Are you trying to make me think everything is so dramatical?

And the user base is safe. If you want to be safe, become the user base, use the final product. Fedora is only the starting point.
