I installed Fedora 26 as the only OS on my laptop and I am very impressed. I don't miss Windows at all. I have played with Ubuntu in the past but Fedora blows that out of the water.

Absolutely not dissing fedora at all but you might be pleased to hear that Ubuntu 17.10 will over a mostly plain gnome shell 3.26 experience

If that is the case, what benefits do you see in switching? I'm genuinely curious.

The main benefit I see is that you will get mostly vanilla Gnome yet with a more stable (yet not as current) system underneath
