This seems backwards to me. Linux is in a lot of ways more appealing to gamers than ever (proton/wine/etc is amazing), with the only thing really holding back being anticheat solutions that block Linux. But for the normie market the problems are the same as they've ever been - libreoffice is a poor MS office substitute, despite one million AI clones the Adobe suite and similar software remains table stakes, even the normie-friendly distros have the occasional arcane terminal-based fixes to jump through, and (the biggest obstacle of all) it has no mindshare and isn't preinstalled on computers that normies buy.
