As a macos and linux user I’d say linux has the same problems it always had:
- driver support (even my thinkpad has an unsupported fingerprint driver, and a buggy intel wifi driver)
- fragmentation that affects user experience. For example, there is still the gnome / kde divide, and using a combination of apps from both is visually jarring.
- lack of microsoft and adobe apps, lack of high quality productivity apps (e.g. i would love a pixelmator equivalent)
- many paper cuts, like how copy and paste of images only works half of the time
- when things break, you have to drop down to the terminal to fix them, instead of running some automated repair wizard
