There’s also a branding problem IF you want “normie” widespread adoption.
If the go to image of a Linux user is the fedora m’lady guy saying “so that’s you’re distro,huh”
Or the furry tallsocks wall of text customize to the n-th degree person,
The normie will never align.
You might like that, from a social perspective, but even saying “your knowledge is outdated” is funny because most folks have little to no knowledge of their Mac either, they just know it “just works” for their mainline usage.
i mean, for you to spend “half your life” in the command line, you’d have to be on a quite terminal intensive path? There are quite a lot of less intimidating Gui’s and on no distro I’ve ever been on has there been that much need for terminal.
Hell, after installing arch it still ran fine and I could get all my gui’s, without much terminal fuss (after installing in pure terminal)
It’s an incredibly useful tool, but not that needed for everyday use.
tbh this comment just goes to show that your knowledge of GNU/Linux is very outdated

In the past I just recommended and helped set up Linux Mint to soneone new.
Nowadays I almost always go with Universalblue’s Bluefin
