So, I teach an intro to IT class and honestly, I like the fact that I can simply state the truth with no blowback:
Linux is the dominant operating system in tech, moreso when you include a fuzzy, but reasonable, definition -- I like to say "Linux-ish."
Kids, literally everything you encounter that isn't Windows is "Linux-ish."
Apple has found ways to make their flavor of "Linux-ish" more exclusive and that has drawbacks. In fact, each company naturally tries to figure out how they can best make money for themselves and you can judge them how you want -- but the core of this is this thing called "free and open source software," where basically everyone agrees to (or it just makes more sense to) use this stuff that's shared and out there.
You can use this as your desktop too, if you like. Here's how.
