NO.
Sorry, you're objectively wrong. And Linux is not so much hard to use, it's a **bitch** to use.
See, you're referring to the "appliance" use case. Let me browse, play some music, edit a document in Libreoffice - yeah, chances are you can do that with zero fuss on any hardware, any distro. The problem is, the SECOND you try using Linux AS A COMPUTER, IT WILL FIGHT YOU FOR AS LONG AS YOU KEEP ATTEMPTING TO USE IT. And I don't care about your counter-arguments, because whatever they are, they are invalid, full stop. Or maybe you'd like to explain how come one can't even check a file hash recursively with "rhash" on ANY distro currently seeing as how ALL releases bar the unreleased Github master branch are utterly broken...? And yeah, that's just the latest punch in the gut - as someone who does, in spite of all this, try to use Linux, I know for a fact that the number of those punches is legion, and they NEVER stop. Yeah, Linux is a sharp tool; but it's for card-carrying masochists ONLY.
