I wanted to take a moment and talk about Linux UX because, let's face it... it sucks.

Actually, it's worse than that. Much of Linux's UX is technically correct and that makes it objectively wrong.

No. I don't want Linux to be more Windows-like. But I do want the most common Linux desktops to behave in a way that PC-literate folks can wrap their mind around — and do so from minute zero

I really dislike dumb and entitled takes like this. First he somehow complains about both GNOME and KDE when literally none of the complaint apply to KDE, second switching between different operating systems will break the way you are doing things anyway, and third - who cares.

It didn't even apply to GNOME. Samba servers just show up in the network section of nautilus.
