I wanted to take a moment and talk about Linux UX because, let’s face it… it sucks.
Actually, it’s worse than that. Much of Linux’s UX is technically correct and that makes it objectively wrong.
No. I don’t want Linux to be more Windows-like. But I do want the most common Linux desktops to behave in a way that PC-literate folks can wrap their mind around — and do so from minute zero.



The kernel does not have good UX, as it’s not something you use directly.
Name a specific distribution and desktop UI combination, then we can discuss that.
But generalising all of them as just “Linux sucks” does not help, as they’re very diverse.
