From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I can imagine people who are used to MacOS like the familiarity of GUI layout and the aesthetics too. Also in fairness to Apple, it is an aesthetically pleasing desktop even if the layout and GUI elements (such as the dock or the top menu bar) isn't what I like.
