Jonathan: I didn't receive your emails (not the first time), only
Tobias' quote.
My personal use-case: I use EXWM most of the times, but it's nice to
have an extra desktop environment for:
- Testing software in a different environment, e.g. XDG integration,
etc.
- Making FOSDEM presentations :) (Works for other presentations too!)
- Letting non-techie friends use my system.
For the above I don't need any GNOME program but GNOME shell and Nautilus.
A lighter system has the benefits of:
- being easier on Internet bandwidth,
- updating faster.
Cheers!
