When I've tried Linux in the past, it's way too much work with limited selection of apps. It's more of a toy to play around with. Learning all the command line stuff, editing text files and selling up jobs, etc. It wasn't for me.
Mind you, last time I seriously looked at Linux was when Red hat was still free. I know things have changed since then.
Oh boy have things changed. The big headline distros of today are more stable, functional and have a much wider variety of software than 2 years ago, let alone a decade ago.
Yeesh. That's like hating Windows because your experience is based on Windows 98. A lot of things has changed since then, a LOT.
