I agree, and that 80% was surprisingly pleasant and smooth experience, compared to my last stab at Linux, about 10 years ago. At least this time I didn't git any driver issues.

But, that last 20% can be kind of a big deal if you need anything from within in...

I'd like to have the time to learn how to use Linux properly, but between a full time job (unrelated to an OS), young family, and other commitments it's just not a priority.

I had a play out of interest, and it's pretty good, but still not 100% usable "out of the box" for me. And how to do that remaining 20% is completely out of many Linux-naive users experience (using the terminal / command line). 20 clicks is easier, as all I'm doing is confirming yes or no on something, that I'm usually given enough information and context to be able to evaluate.

And I suspect that's true of many many others. Which was the point of my original reply (which I'd hoped to be more humorous than insulting to people, but c'est la vie...).

To try and put it in another context:

It's really nice to be offered a lift somewhere I need to get to, but if I get kicked out the car and have to walk the remaining 20% of the way, then next time maybe I'll just get the bus/train/taxi. It might cost more, but at least I know I won't have to worry if I'll get there or not.

Also, as a new user, I didn't know why I was seeing multiple versions of the same packages to install (flatpak etc). Googling to see which is best leads to the inevitable answer of "It depends", which a new user might not be able to answer...

(I'm not so much speaking to you directly, and I know this is a meme post, but I'm more thinking about the handful of people in the community who seem to always reply along the lines of "people should switch to Linux, because [reason here]. And, yes, people need to learn how to x", without demonstrating any understanding of nuance around other people's competing priorities / skills / abilities.)

Aaaaanyway, gonna go Google "Linux 101" lessons...
