I think UI customizations are (for the most part) more important to new
Linux users who are experimenting. For someone like me, I just want the
UI to look and work pretty much the way it did the last release or
three releases earlier. (Small changes don't take too long to get used
to. I may be in the minority here, I don't know.

 
Some of the subreddits like r/Fedora often have posts 'look at the
beautiful desktop I made'.  Yawn.

Some people are interested in aesthetics, some people aren't.

Some like chocolate ice cream, some like vanilla.

Some people like to work in a park -- and some in
a post-industrial cyber dystopia.

Personally, I've been using xfce4 for years, and I have it
set up the way I like.  I _also_ have Cairo dock running, but
I hardly use it -- just interested in how stable it is, because
that's what I've got set up for Mrs. vallor.

For me, Linux desktop porn is fun to look at, but I tend to keep
things functional first.
