Correct. Somehow, though, Linux does "everything" better than any other OS I've used in the past. Relative to MacOS and Windows, Linux really can be the best of both worlds. Linux still plays the games that MacOS and even Windows do not. Linux is still getting regular updates on my laptop from 2007. It hosts my Plex server, handles the majority of my work-related tasks, and generally it doesn't really complain. Having spent dozens of hours working around roadblocks in MacOS and tweaking Windows to just barely be a dev environment, I'm perfectly happy to use Linux even if though it is total garbage, because the kernel is almost undeniably better than modern NT or XNU.
I still think the world of Linux desktop development is a total disaster, though. GNOME is out for blood, KDE is building great stuff on a terrible library, and everyone else is just shifting uncomfortably because Wayland still isn't desktop-agnostic (much less hardware-agnostic, for that matter). The way things are headed, I wouldn't be surprised if Linux was almost entirely unsupported by Slack/Spotify/Discord in 2025.
