    I don’t think I ever saw a Linux user that doesn’t want it to have widespread adoption

      You’ve never met an eternal September Linux user?

      I regularly encounter such people online and offline, as well as people who abhor GUIs or making Linux easier to use.

      It’s the paradox of wanting Linux to be widely supported but not wanting it to become a walled garden experience. The average consumer is not keen on “different” and “complex” and designing all of Linux around the preferences of those average consumers would mean sacrificing the advanced features and customisation power users enjoy.
