I have found that: it’s easier if you stick to one (major) distro such as Debian or its derivatives, and try to stick to that distro’s package system (in this case, apt). Yes there is a learning curve. But once you learn it, you find that Linux gets easier to use. But more importantly, it gets more POWERFUL to use. I agree with your assessment that Linux is not beginner friendly but it is USER friendly in that it empowers the user. But yes you do have to put in a little work first.

Don’t they understand because they were PARDONED it means that they were GUILTY?
Ok but we’re not exactly asking the electorate to understand quantum physics. Is asking people to look at what TACO did last time too much to ask for?
