they haven't n even try to make it more easy to use

Exactly, I was using Linux some 10 years ago, got away from it and have now gone back with Mint. There have been minimal improvements in the easy of use. They have the basics down but anything even slightly custom and your in for a world of hurt if you don't know what your doing.

There are still some major misses too like not having default support for Realtek Audio chips. Realtek is one of the most used onboard audio chips out there. I don't get why this was overlooked.

and have now gone back with Mint.

That's a distribution for beginners (which is a word professionals use to refer to ignorant people).

default support for Realtek Audio chips

There is default support.

I don't get why this was overlooked.

It wasn't by them, since the support is literally in the kernel. As to why it was overlooked by you, I can only guess. So, perhaps you might want to understand your hardware first and only then complain on the internet exposing your ignorance.

There is absolutely no reason not to use Linux for any application. I thought perhaps "not being able to run PhotoShop" was still a "valid reason" (it never has been), but apparently that works great too these days.

I have a bad feeling its deliberately to keep it that way so mainstream platform have no competition. Like you said things what should be very simple to do its nearly impossible to do, my blood boil when they say how good Linux community is, to me its bs. Those guys don't even make videos to help people on YouTube, sure there is info but believe me it will feel like 9 to 5 job to find the fix on YouTube, simple stuff like update to new java version.

It's because diversity tokens and demented sex freaks took over since they all claimed disability so they didn't have to actually get jobs so they sat inside all day making shitty code that barely works taking forever to even get that done while everyone else had to support their worthless asses with wages stolen from their paychecks.

Plus they used to make the best wifi chips for network security penetration.
