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?

    Yeah, I can see how stuff like electronics simulation might be an issue. I’m not up to date any more, the major tools used to be some very expensive proprietary products. I’ve tried some simulation tools, but I’m not an expert on that and I don’t know where we’re at with the alternatives and what kind of feature set they offer. And I struggled a bit with KiCads autorouting back then. But it’s probably gotten better since.
