Not many will make the choice based on the airport, rather on the destination and whether or not low-cost carriers fly there. So travelling via BKK or DMK is generally driven by ticket price and schedule. While LCC operate out of BKK, DMK is their home ground and they generally carry out a slick operation.
Maybe there's an element of nostalgia for some in DMK. It was my first arrival point in Thailand, but it's changed enormously since then.
