Linux has made significant strides, and in 2023, it’s better than ever. However, there are still individuals perpetuating a delusion: that desktop Linux is as user-friendly and productive as its mainstream counterparts. After a few discussions on Lemmy, I believe it’s important to provide a clear review of where Linux falls short as a daily driver for average users.

EDIT: can I just make it clear I don’t agree with this article one bit and think it’s an unhinged polemic?

    I’m pretty sure the average person wouldn’t even be able to tell the difference between something like mint and windows.

    Linux is as user-friendly as the user wants it to be.

      Sometimes Teams sends audio to the wrong device at work and I think “why am I so hard on Linux when Windows can’t get it right even with all of Microsoft’s resources”
