i dunno, nothing about most computing is particularly easy to use or intuitive.

what has worked over time is having computers of various types in schools, where teachers teach students and let them play with it.

nobody teaches about the command line, so nobody knows what to do with it. its also inscrutible without a useable help view, unless you already know how to use the terminal

Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android are definitely much easier to use and more intuitive than Linux today. That’s because their developers are incentivized to put themselves in the shoes of less-skilled users and figure out how to build a good experience for them.

I’m all for higher Linux adoption on desktop, but there’s still a lot of resistance to making less-skilled users the primary target instead of power users.

Teaching can help, but if it takes 50 hours to learn the basics of Linux versus 5 hours for Windows, it’s a losing battle.
