Absolutely. If you really want the “year of the Linux desktop”, the Linux community needs to start meeting people where they are, or atleast halfway between where they are and where Linux users are.
A silent portion of the community actually prefers that normal people don’t adopt linux. Those with entitlement and wanting to be spoonfed everything are best left to suffer with windows.
Its kind of unfair because the playing field is not level. Microsoft made sure of this decades ago.
The problem with linux is Microsoft. They worked hard over half a century to make it difficult for linux adoption. They paid hardware vendors to keep windows exclusivity. They forced secureboot starting at windows 8 causing problems for linux users.
They made sure linux never got the mindshare that windows has.
