My reason of moving from KDE4 to Gnome was exactly the same,
resource hog :P<br>
I'm not going back to KDE, yet. XFCE is not mature enough for my
usage and I'm thinking of trying both MATE and Cinnamon sometime
soon when I get time to update my distro. <br>
If Cinammon does what I want it to do, then I wouldn't mind the
ocassional bug, since it's quite new and is very actively developed
this is to be expected. <br>
I'd had gripes with GDM3 also, and it was already a sign that the
folks at Gnome were getting goofy. <br>
<br>

gnome3 definitely has become a major turnoff, i basically
stopped using gnome at all ever since they screwed up with
gdm's configuration for login screen's theme at some point,
sincei felt such a feature should have been considerred
normal and i should be doing any tweaks to do that. I just use
my nix environment remotely now, my mac's front end is fine!<br>

Well... To know if Cinnamon is better than gnome depends
a lot on what you expect from a desktop environment.<br>
<br>
Cinnamon sits on top on Gnome, so you're ultimately
using the same thing but interacting differently.<br>
I'd advise you moving to Cinnamon if you prefer the old
school menu... But if you want it to perform better or
be less buggy, then you'll be disappointed.<br>
<br>
Better migrating with XFCE or something else in that
respect.<br>
