Why Gnome?

[Steve Litt]

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.
