That begs the question, was Windows ever good? OTOH, the Linux desktop experience may be better than Windows, but (as someone who uses Linux both on my home PC and work laptop) I also wouldn't describe it as 100% "good". It works most of the time, but if you run into issues, good luck - especially with things like Wayland, that Ubuntu simply decided to let loose on its unsuspecting users...
