@1ce4e61d Ehhhhhh...

There's more "integration" in the sense that apps are more likely to use the same windowing toolkit as the desktop?

One could argue there's a semblance of design cohesion, but... It's a harder sell if you use GNOME apps on KDE for example.

Maybe the KDE suite of apps? But, I don't use 'em.

I'd just rather keep it at software being free, can boot/run faster, and aren't always connected to the internet. Those are the biggest user-facing constants to me. 

 @eb6cb889 yeah, that's all I could come up with from an integration standpoint as well - theming. Not a compelling reason to switch ecosystems.
