I haven’t used gnome boxes in a few years, but last time i tried it was essentially an useless toy.
I wonder if they are at least trying to be as cool as the good old virt-manager or if they are going full gnome (that is, four buttons and two features).
They indeed totally lost their way. I think that a relative success was very bad to drive the ego of a few wannabe designers.
And since then, it is like selfish driven development and so I think that a lot of users like me moved away.
Currently I use Cinnamon for years and couldn't be more happy.
The following sentence shows the problem:
First, shifting to a Flatpak-first (and only) model. As a solo developer, maintaining code paths for countless distributions isn’t sustainable.
I understand the solo dev burden, but then it is amateur work. If you don't care to do serious and durable changes, just don't do it under the gnome brand umbrella...

They're still living on the good will earned from Gnome 2
