What Linux is missing is a "just works" distro like Mint, that isn't based on Debian Stable or Ubuntu LTS but on something with newer packages and kernels, with >50% market share so you can easily ~~google~~ duck distro-specific issues.

Basically what Ubuntu was, 18 years ago. Nowadays, Ubuntu is still a good beginner's distro, but every beginner asking what to start with is confused by all the experienced Linux users shouting at them about how the most popular distro is evil and shit, for reasons a beginner doesn't understand.
