I get the feeling. I've been a linux desktop user for 20 years now, waiting for people to see the light. But, sadly they don't, for all kinds of reasons.
And I've made peace with that.
Because things like linux, or ethereum, or the fediverse don't need huge, widespread adoption to succeed. They need a core of serious, dedicated folks willing to keep pushing it forward while it's presence in the market acts as a very real check on the centralized and walled off ecosystems.
And eventually, the core of what's been built will end in up in consumers hands and running their servers in the background, and will gain billions of oblivious users.
The 3 thing's that keep me from using ubuntu as my every day machine is there's like 3 or 4 different ways to install app and only one of them is easy but apps are rarely distributed that way, the directory structure makes it difficult to find app files, and the UI feels unpolished like most open source apps/websites.
