For personal use, most of the time, not too much. However I have encountered enough binary package conflicts when using pip that is just easier to use conda (or conda-forge). On the distribution side, we are a small academic group that provides a niche, binary, scientific package that has quite a few binary dependencies (things like hdf, netcdf, etc.). We do not have the human effort to provide support for different distributions of Python, but it is very easy for us to say it will work if you use Anaconda with this environment on multiple OS's.
