While I agree with the sentiment, you're comparing a mobile OS, built that way from the ground up, to a desktop OS. The same problem exists in Windows and MacOS.

it does, and we ain't in the ideal world! heres the thing, on one hand they got more media covering them, but on the other they use an universal kind of installer.

worse, some devs will spin .exes and .dmgs but on linux they wont even bother giving you an install script sometimes, let alone using flatpak which is a solution that fixes most of those problems.
