What's the point of advocating a proprietary operating system that does not even have good quality software?

can you give examples? I work with Pd, sibelius, reaper, ...

Other think is: do not talk about price when you talk about free software.... That's losing the point. I think free software should be of very good quality and people should be encouraged to pay for it if they make money of of it, or if they can contribute

with something.

I never talked about price about free software, don't know where you got that. Can you be more precise?

I think all software should be of good quality. When I spend X hours trying to work with an OS and I get nothing done, that's a criteria for me to leave that os and go to an other where I can produce something, not just be solving problems all the time. but that's my decision.

With any free software that you deem not up to your standards, make sure to check back periodically to see if its feature set has changed substantially since the last time you used it. I think this is especially important for a free OS, because as improvements/bug fixes/hardware support start to snowball, the problems that ate
up all your time can quickly disappear.
