Why is linux so unpleasent to use, or is it just me?

I have tried to like Linux, again and again. I have tried Ubuntu and Fedora, different versions over different years.

I have no issues using Mac or Windows. But no matter how hard I try and enjoy it I find Linux unpleasant to use.

The fonts don’t feel rigth, the ui is stark and uninviting, little elements of the ui that should be so simple to use just don’t work.

I have tried theme’ing, and tinkering to the best of my ability, but it just never works.

I love the philosophy behind it, but the reality just does not do it, can anyone help me?
