Well Desktop Environments have become what the Linux Desktop is to most people and it honestly made sense back when we had just KDE and Gnome and maybe XFCE. But now we have so many damn Desktops that thinking about the good old day of just using a Window Manager (or now a Wayland Compositor) appears simple.
It sort of sucks that every distro thinks their shitty UI customization is their unique selling point, overwriting what ever Desktop Environment does. In the end the user is probably going to change it anyway or try (sudo apt install vanilla-gnome-desktop? WTF?).
When advanced distros like Manjaro and Arch get more popular because you don’t have to undo so much things are sort of bad.
