Exactly. I've been using Linux almost exclusively on the desktop since 2002. At first, I dual booted for gaming, photoshop and office. I quickly found that I hated booting into Windows. Sure, I could use a real word processor, but I hated not having my files, my music/videos, my browser bookmarks (this was before bookmark syncing) etc... I ended up just accepting the fact that to use Linux, I had to be ok with some inferior desktop software. Since then, things have really improved with apps like Dropbox, Steam, Sublime and Chrome meeting my basic needs, but it's really the web that's solved this problem. Plex, Netflix, Evernote, Google's webapps etc.. mean my Desktop OS doesn't matter, I just need a modern web browser. Would I prefer a native Evernote app on Linux over the webapp? Sure, but it's a compromise I'm willing to make to use Linux.
