In addition to what @mavhc mentioned there are tons of smaller improvements too.

1809 is working well here with no issues. We're using 250GB SSDs and, short of a few very heavily used shared computers, the GPO profile clean-up keeps them from getting full.

 

It's going to be interesting to see how the 19H1 reserved space will work. Since all temp files will be put in there, it may keep the system running better and more crap-free. Right now, running Disk Cleanup every so often keeps the Windows installations tidy.

The beauty of thin image approach in MDT - deployment changes for 1809 took all of 5 minutes and so far looking good. Added the new OneDrive per-machine install to the TS as well, looking good so far.

Mines thin-ish, I still put office in the image. I might move away from that though, then there will be no need for a capture anymore

Yeah, I'm hoping it's a proper solution to the "Windows.old" gumpf that gets left behind. Debating if I should deploy 1809 this easter or hold off a bit to wait for 1903 because of this (Yes I'm nuts!)

Look into Storage Sense - should help clear up left over old files. Particularly useful for OneDrive Files on Demand stuff.

Once you move to Office 365 ProPlus it changes every 6 months (or even more regularly if you're brave) so no point putting in the image at that point imo
