it is wrong to want to be spoonfed your computing needs
Why though? It’s not like you are building your own OS every time on assembler level, or do you?
Making software more convenient is one of the reasons for having software at all.
That doesn’t mean turning it into an “opaque box” where company interests will be pushed. Having a more user experience oriented design in Linux distros can save a lot of time and frustration as well as make it more attractive to average users.
Even power users, who work with Linux professionally will benefit.
And it just might start with something as simple as proper documentation of a package.
yes that’s right but that’s not what I meant by “it is wrong to be want o be spoonfed”. User friendliness is important and linux by large IS user friendly and well documented. There are distros like mint that go even more above and beyond in that aspect and I am greatfull for that. But to say that nothing should ever break and having one frustration and saying that linux isn’t ready is simply unrealistic and lazy as hell. People who act like this overlook how frustrating MacOS and Windows are to use and this dishonesty really gets to me personally

It should also be considered if those who are saying that could possibly be astroturfing for another company and it’s OS, in a negative way, to redirect the narrative.
