I would argue it's easier to use than Windows at least, but it is different from Windows so moving from Windows to Linux can be challenging and you have to be willing to adapt. Package managers make the experience so much better for users though, and you don't have to hunt down random executable online for installs or updates (usually). There's also no mucking about with a thing like registries in Windows to make it work how you want, which you don't have to do on Windows but to make it less annoying you do.
