Exactly. If an operating system is offering a GUI for installing software, it should work. If it isn't working, it takes an extreme amount of bias to blame the user instead of the operating system.

Windows 10 is user hostile only if the user in question is sensible enough to understand that an operating system can be user hostile. News flash, most people on Earth who use a laptop or a desktop couldn't tell the difference between Firefox and Edge and why they might wanna use one over the other. For such people, who are used to double clicking on exe files and using them without issues, Linux would be incredibly user hostile. You just need to look at things from the perspective of a beginner, not yourself.

Which is why I've been using Linux as my daily driver for more than 6 years now, but I would never recommend anyone to use it, unless I want to see them in pain.
