Linux is NOT a desktop OS. Ubuntu, Debian, Suse, Fedora are desktop OSses

KDE is a desktop

Linux is a kernel. Linux is Android, Linux is your NAS, the supercomputer where I work at and the servers that make the internet.

Discussing Linux in terms of a desktop OS is moot.

Windows includes FOSS, 99% of "all the small apps" are available in Linux, Mac or Windows.

All the ones that not: Photoshop or MS Office are available on the cloud and way more powerful than their desktop veresions.

You CAN have KDE / Kwin running on Windows.

The Linux community does enough. "We" basically own the internet. If any of us wants a Linux based desktop we install it and use it. The rest can use Android.
