    If you need skills in order to use an OS, then that is a bad OS.

      This is very true. There is a difference between being bad at using software, and software being bad. Linux just has an intrinsically bad desktop design.

      You don’t need skills to use GNU+Linux, in the same way you don’t need skills to use Windows.

      It has different ways of doing things which needs to be learned, but that also applies the other way around. I’ve not touched Windows in years, and so it’d be quite an unfamiliar environment and I’d need to learn a new way to do things. That doesn’t mean it’s bad (it is, but for other reasons).

      Tl;Dr just because you’re not familiar with something doesn’t make it bad or inferior
