I tried linux as a desktop on and off for over 25 years. As an server OS it's more than ok and everything I worked in last years got deployed to linux (because BSD lacks OCI containers)
In fact, I am using now Pop!_OS in parallel with Windows. But linux desktop experience still feels broken when compared with Windows and macOS.
I want to install the system with the defaults, not spend time configuring it and have an "it just works" experience. But even if I spend tons of time configuring and fiddling with it, something will fail, there will be problems, something won't work at all, something won't work properly and something will require complex workarounds that take time and exhaust my patience.
Before trying Pop!_OS I tried CachyOS. It provided me a broken desktop experience but in a different way.
Probably the best linux desktop experience now is provided by WSL2, followed by ChromeOS.
