I think its because ultimately, most linux users either are using linux professionally, and therefore only care about the professional goals they’ve been assigned to completing, or they tend to be rather insufferable (the type to tell new users to enter sudo -rf --no-preserve-root or pretend that the average user both does not need any powerful features, but is also too lazy and stupid to use powerful features, but should still switch to linux to be berated for some reason).
That combines with the biggest thing: That there isn’t the money to go into developing things for linux that there is for mac or windows because the people aren’t there, and the people arent there because linux is basically for snobbish elitists, the fringe of society or professionals, AND has all the problems of that catch 22 in the first place, which further concentrates the worst people being the ambassadors for linux, like the real, felt ambassadors, like what someone actually runs into when trying to switch.
I do think Valve is doing a pretty heavy lift right now, and I am very glad they picked KDE, a DE that focuses on open ended pragmatism.
It’s hilarious, and sad, that the same issues I dealt with nearly 20 years ago, are still the same issues.
Let me get this straight, you want to suspend AND resume?
If you were going to resume anyways then why bother suspending in the first place eh?

But don’t worry, 2025 is the year of the Linux desktop
