This seems to be a Linux exclusive problem. In general Linux is great, but there's so many people that really don't care about usability.

The problem with open source is that programmers often set priorities(Which is why I'm a fan of Cathedral model software).

FOSS programmers love to program so much, that everything they write is usually a tool to help make other programs.

Without outside feedback, or some kind of strong mission to really focus on the mainstream, the whole entire ecosystem can turn into jusr one massive IDE made of loosely coupled utilities.
