There are humans on the other end of that Internet
This conversation was sparked from this Tweet (https://twitter.com/tsimonquigley2/status/1740110615404806483)
Linus gets passionate sometimes (https://web.archive.org/web/20240201103502/https://lkml.org/lkml/2024/1/26/1013)

Douglas Paul
Douglas does his own 12 step distro hop program.
Gnome (https://www.gnome.org/), Fedora (https://fedoraproject.org/), with Extensions (https://extensions.gnome.org/) and Albert (https://albertlauncher.github.io/) is the landing spot... at least for now.
Bruce Hankins on Why Don't You Use Linux (4:11)
Two categories of users, average users and power users. 
Average users don't really tinker.
Power users like to tinker (this is where Leo and Dan fall as well as many of you) but there is a small amount of us.
Installation of the system and applications is not intuitive.
Jayden on Why Don't You Use Linux (4:11) AAAAAAND a Note Suggestion
Gnome with gestures and multi-touch (https://wiki.gnome.org/Design/OS/Gestures) are great.
A couple of note taking apps for Leo to chase - Xournal++ (https://xournalpp.github.io/) and Rnote (https://rnote.flxzt.net/)
