It is ready if you start learning it from children, but people first touches a Windows machine, and then they get used to what they already know.

Example of someone that never touched a Windows, post from 2 years ago: https://duncanlock.net/blog/2022/04/06/using-windows-after-15-years-on-linux/

And I read people that claims they are better on Ubuntu because is what they first started to use (because of lack of money) and now they find it hard to use Windows, because they got used to Linux and they aren't either programmers.

Maybe what Linux needs is marketing. The Steam console is an example of how well it sells.

Some Valve documentation was released concerning third party hardware shipping with SteamOS. Big if true.
