If they aren't interested in learning they will complain that MSO, Photoshop, Premiere doesn't work as well. Nobody is helped, everyone is miserable. They can just stay in their walled garden or even migrate over to the golden cage aka MacOS.
That's true. They will. But maybe if enough users switch to SteamOS, Adobe, and other software developers might port their software to it. That's really the only hope for widespread Linux desktop adoption.
Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe more people will be willing to endure a learning curve for the freedom and openness of Linux, but I think that path to widespread Linux adoption would take a long time, if it happens at all.
