I suppose this is why most people don't adopt Linux for very long. It
seems that an open-source solution can be good for one task or another

worth using for a simple task.

It depends on the task and the user's needs and experience.

I've been using Linux over 20 years as my primary OS and it does everything
I need. Despite being in business for decades I've never used any of the
Microsoft Office programs, though I've installed it plenty of times for
others.

I notice that anyone whose needs aren't specific will find joy with
Linux but anyone who wants to do specific tasks well, don't like it at all.

That would be 2% of all users?
Let them use Windows.
After all, we're in 2020. Plenty of other options for the
majority.
