Issues are being addressed? Are we from the same universe? WTF are you all talking about?
Regressions? No, freaking not, QA/QC is just not there - every kernel release brings up to 100 regressions.
No stable APIs/ABIs? All the freaking time. Even glibC developers break compatibility all the time. It's a freaking core library. Oh, libstdc++/gcc is another major offender.
+10 years old bugs no one wants to fix? All the freaking time.
Poorly supported hardware? Welcome to Linux.
Etc. etc. etc.
It's great that your wonderful PC/laptop works with Linux a dozen little nasty bugs notwithstanding. However ... you must upgrade your whole distro every 9 months to stay up to date. You need to cope with the fact that under Linux your laptop battery time is a lot worse than under Windows/MacOS X. You forsake many applications and games because they are simply not available and most likely will never be [made available].
That's all freaking great.
