Well, not in my experience. I installed Fedora, which I think is fairly friendly distro, although the moment I wrote Fedora someone is going to say, try XXX instead. To those people I would say, I want to use linux, not distro hop linux.

I installed Fedora to actually stay there and ditch windows.

And I had several errors with this chip on my motherboard: Realtek ALC892. Mind that asking in Fedora forums was an extremely unpleasant experience, saying that my reports were useless. Which they probably were, because I am not a linux expert, and I do not know what is the command they want me to write to get an output.

That chipset is a decade old, extremely common, and not yet supported. The solution is to buy and use an USB soundcard.

The second problem is related to Wayland/xorg. I was using KDE plasma, with an nvidia card and the propietary drivers. The very latest driver flashed my screen which were useless.

I had to run a myriad of commands in order to install a previous version and not to get it updated, which again, it is not what I would consider ready for desktop. I should be able to go to the software center, be able to select any previous version (you cant), and click an option that says do not update this please.

So I manage to make them work, but they only worked fine with xorg, not with wayland. And then other apps, stopped working, with blank screens, because they are only supported on wayland (but can't use wayland with my nvidia 1050 ti card). If you report a bug, they will tick it with "not our bug" and so it is.

Honestly, the experience was horrible, and I did try to make it work the best I could and get involved with the community. Even here I can see I already see my comment with -4 points.

But that does not change the fact, that the desktop experience with linux is not yet ready, and closing your eyes and say it is, because you manage to use it. It will not help linux at all in the future.
