I sincerely hope that one day, Linux GUI land will receive similar amounts of work as the kernel.
While it's great that we can boot it on pretty much every device out there, I would much prefer if it was a viable Windows alternative on a few devices instead.
Just yesterday, I plugged an external screen into my Ubuntu laptop. And then I had to duck-duck for like an hour to figure out how to make the fonts large enough to be readable again.
And why doesn't the file browser reliably show me all the files in a folder? Sometimes, the first file in alphabetical order is just omitted.
I sincerely want to like Linux for Desktop as much as I love it on servers. But the fact is, OSX and Windows just make you so much more productive, because things just work.
