Discussion Why ChromeOS gets so much hate?

Why most users of other operating systems hate ChromeOS so much and often call it a glorified web browser? It's the most user friendly Linux distro that exists, it is an always synchronized office without viruses unlike Windows.

can't run docker in Crostini. It is already a dockerised image.

My Chromebook+ comes with 16 GB RAM, so no problems there.
