For me, Linux became a viable desktop OS when Steve Jobs killed flash and browsers could render any page independently of the OS.

Then Office 365 came around and I could do quick work w/out a windows machine.

FWIW you could install Flash on Linux. It was sometimes a pain but it did work.

Massive PIA.

Since flash didnt work I didnt use Linix

Since I didnt use Linux I wasnt very good at it

Since I kept at noob level, I couldnt install Flash, which was pretty hard
