Linux works well but sadly most people don't use Linux

Most people use Linux, just not desktop. If people are okay with Android, they'd be okay with Gnome as well.

If they sell snapdragon laptops with Linux preinstalled people would buy, sadly they're more likely to include Windows (which has bad support).

Android is Linux. Linux is the most popular OS in the world.

Yet Chromebooks have been a major element for the past 5 years, with more units sold than Apple. I know it's not technically GNU/Linux. But there's still a Linux core underneath required to run Chrome OS.

ChromeOS is popular because it's included in cheap laptops and the operating system is essentially idiot proof (at the cost of being able to do practically nothing)
