    If people ever wonder why people don’t use Linux they should just read the comments here. People are so obsessed with blaming users for not using Linux rather than trying to make Linux meet their expectations.

    Most people will go to a shop and buy a laptop with Windows preinstalled and ready to be used, and even if they’re brave enough to install the OS themselves (most aren’t) they will still expect pretty much everything to work automatically after the install.

    I don’t know what the solution is here but it’s not to blame users.

      Linux isn’t a product. You can’t think of it like a product. It is simply a piece of software and doesn’t care if you use it or not. It’s not “competing” with Windows, it’s not even playing the same game.
