100% agree. Getting an M1 Mac has solidified this feeling for me too; I still want to be a Linux desktop user on philosophical grounds and will never go back to Windows, but as I age I have rapidly lost interest in tinkering and now want it to Just Work. Actually it isn't really the distro which needs fixing, but rather the package management space. Appimage/Snap/Flatpak need to be consolidated into a single open standard which is as easy to use as Homebrew.
