I get (I think) how this is different from a Linux desktop, being developed in entirety as a single project, instead of being split into a kernel, and user-space distro, and fragmented apps on top of that, but ... is there a tl;dr on how this compares to (say) FreeBSD, which is another "kernel + user-space in one package" thing?

FreeBSD still runs X11 and a bunch of other applications on top of it to get a working desktop, and the result is ... even less pleasant than the Linux desktop, according to some reviews: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2020/04/not-actually-linux-distro-review-freebsd-12-1-release/ https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2020/04/not-actually-linux-d...
