"You could try Ubuntu, Linux Mint, elementary OS, Zorin OS, or Ubuntu Budgie."
Long story short, desktop Linux is still focused at hobbyists. Messing around with different Linux distros and doing complete re-installs is what these folks do for fun.
To most people in the "real world", the computer is a tool, not their best friend. They just want to get some work done. Fiddling with different distros and resolving update conflicts is counter-productive to them.
