Sorry if this is not the right community to ask this, but I just wondered this today.

Users often think of Linux as being more complicated to use than something like Windows or macOS, but I’m sure there are plenty of things made easier in Linux than the other two more common consumer OSes.

What are some that come to mind for you?

That only works though, if the app is in the official repos. Otherwise it gets as complicated as Windows, if not more so. Which technically also has a software manager (Microsoft store), albeit a bad one.
