To be fair my introduction to linux was through Unix use since the 80s. I used it first for fun and later at school then I did linux and BSD for fun. So I got the learning curve out of the way young.
For generation of people whose concept of computing is Windows or Mac, Linux is indeed a different animal. It does ask you to THINK. It does not pad you from your own iniquities and foolish actions.
In the end it becomes part of your existence and you find yourself involved in development and you have your own GiT channel and are working towards having your own repository.
I know a freelance artist that went open source and then to linux and found the tools needed work. Before he knew it he was deeply involved in art tool development. He was now an artist, a scripter, a tester, and a programmer (in a limited sense). Dev teams came to him to test their builds and ask for feed back and ideas.
So in the end linux grows on you in that sort of way. If you want your life spoon fed to you by someone else, stick with Windows and Mac, the "Modern America" model of life.
