If linux was a better software, it would have a substantial desktop share. But it doesn't since it's the most unintuitive userhating software built by man.
Because as we all know, the free market always comes up with the correct answer and is never distorted by companies.
I've never seen any OS being shilled like linux, it even beats apple fanboys during its heyday. A free OS that's constantly pushed down our throats should by all means be a consumers number 1 choice if it was good.
But I guess having to learn 5 million commands to open a folder is bad design, who knew? I have better use for my time than debug drivers and figure out dependencies when W10 sort of works all that out for me in an intuitive fashion.
If you think you need to learn commands to open a folder you didn't use Linux for the past 20 years. Most things are done now via a graphical environment such as Plasma or GNOME. It's the more advanced things such as managing system services that are done via a terminal. But normal user really doesn't have to do these kind of things for normal desktop use.
