gnome's software center is fine if you know what you want and it's in the repos. the discoverability is essentially nil though - yeah, there's some browsing and categories, but the categorization is poor and more popular apps aren't surfaced in any meaningful way. it's great if you're an indie software developer who cares about things like fairness and other apps not being featured above your own, but it's certainly a long ways off from the app store experience of android or iOS in nearly every metric that my mum might care about.
