I think the bundles applications are part of it, Not that there is any exclusion of it. Most of it is a preference of how things are done. Resource consumption and management. and in some cases level of pretty.

i think ease of tinkerability is part of it some are easier to do so with than others.

Hi all,

A recent thread got me thinking: What does Gnome offer that any old
environment with a panel (the thing they used to call a "taskbar" in
win98)? What can you do with Gnome that you can't do with LXDE or xfce?

I'm unable to use Gnome because I init with runit rather than systemd,
but I'd still like to understand how Gnome makes life easier for people.
