It's true for enterprise distributions, sure, but something like Arch Linux+GNOME 3.20 is REEALY nice. I use a Mac at work and my Arch with GNOME setup at home is easily matching the Mac and even outperforming it in terms of package management etc. Mac still handles high DPI a lot better, (but GNOME is getting there too) and if I was doing media content production, Linux probably wouldn't cut it for me, but I'm programmer and Linux is just the sweet spot of power + choice + usability for me.
