What I mean is cinnamon is the default desktop. I don't like it, it's a
matter of taste, it's of no concern here. But when I installed xfce,
lxde and enlightenment, they all looked like cinnamon and that was
disturbing. I was hopping to show different ways of using Linux, but
they were so similar, it was like showing the Window Manager is of no
consequence, they can all look the same. So, it was a consistency
brought by the distro, not by the WM.
