> Apple and MS seem to continue to resist this notion but they are increasingly exceptions.

I din't think resisting is the correct word: Linux could be perfect from the user perspective but not the device one: battery handling in a notebook, good support of certain devices, etc. Linux does not replace the whole needs of users or organizations and that is why MS and Apple continue to exist. They existed before Linux either! The business is not the OS.

You could probably modify Linux to fix those problems, but most users won't know how to do that and want something that just works.

I think it is clear that Linux has space to grow in the desktop side, this is great. I just want to point out that there are issues that could be solved if there is an UX focus. For example: "Is battery management still the biggest issue for Linux in 2023?" [1]. This is not a rant. I think Linux is really great I just think it is a pity that some obvious things are not solved. I don't think it is lack of funding but lack of focus on some specific areas.
