That's not my intention at all. It's just frustrating how little of it translates to impact that's readily felt by end users, including those of us without technical inclination.

It did and was, it was just something that built up over time as more and paper cuts and small things got fixed. So even if it didn't feel like things were changing, they were.
I've been "gaming" on linux for a long time, and you could see the slow march of progress as more and more stuff worked, and more and more stuff got faster.
This is a good point, the fact that you can just download some video games and run them on your linux desktop with a working desktop environment and so on, even while getting a ton of papercuts, was basically unimaginable 15 years ago.
that's what i was doing 15 years ago! I played a pretty decent amount of games. Every year got better and better.
