Gnome always had this problem of spreading thin instead of focusing. Lots of little tiny irrelevant apps just to have something to stamp a Gnome branding on. But even people who are really hardcore about using a Gnome desktop don't use those apps.
I've never met a single person who uses Gnome Web (Epiphany) instead of Chrome/Firefox/Brave/Vivaldi/whatever. Or Totem (instead of mplayer, mpv and its various frontends, or VLC). Or Boxes instead of virt-manager. Or gedit (instead of the trillion text editors that exist on Linux. The thing the platform lacks the least? Text editors.). Oh wait, it's not gedit anymore, they wrote a new one from scratch called "Text Editor".
