The best "linux" distro: macOS
That's just your personal opinion. What is your claim based on?

Unix based, "free", runs on several type of platforms (hackintosh anyone?).
Free as in "free Beer" yes, free as in "no-vendor lock-in", no.
The time of "Hackintosh" will be over sooner or later with the move to their in-house CPUs and other co-processors like T2 and others.

Linux is a niche pruduct.
It's a niche product on Desktop, yes.

They don't like to hack to make a computer work.
Didn't you mention the "Hackintosh"? The word "Hack" in it is taken literally.

Even UBUNTU is too clancky and ugly.
I don't think that the majority of SC clients care about "ugliness".

I see my teenager kids and their friends, they use Macs for school and win for gaming. They have no drive to learn Linux. Even the more geeky kids that like programming want to develop "apps" for mobile. This is the world today, and I wouldn't ignore it.
The indoctrination of the big companies works out quite well.
I guess that most geeky kids want to develop "apps" for mobile is, because they think they can get rich fast.
Ignoring the world like it is today? No, but it's better to learn from its mistakes and try differently.
