>Why are directing this complaint against Linux and not Radarr? They could choose to package it for various Linux distributions if they do wish.

You misunderstand my complaint. I am not blaming anyone. I am explaining why the user experience is bad. This is a common retort in the Linux community: "but they are to blame, not me!" As an end user, I don't care who is to blame. I just care that Linux is harder to use.

Well hopefully Radarr takes note and improves their users' experience when running on Linux. But in the end it's up to Radarr. Not all software is easily-installable on Windows. Not all software is easily-installable on Macos. Not all software is easy installable on various Linux distributions. I guess until Radarr decides to provide a better user experience for users of Linux, those users will either have to switch operating systems or deal with the difficulties themselves.
