you buy an expensive house and everything is where it should be and you are proud of your new home .... often the builder comes back and tells you the sofa belongs to him and he is changing the cover ... or he is building a through-passage between the lounge and the kitchen oh yes and he is painting all that yellow bright yellow oh no grey
Windows
=====
similar to above but the builder comes backs rips some rooms down and makes them worse than before and somehow makes it that it is slower to move through the house; he then hikes your repayments
Linux as it first was
==============
the builder can't be bothered so he has told you he knows where the bricks are and here are the keys to the van; actually use your own. the windows are here there are glass panes and some wood he has told you where to buy a hammer ... he says he knows a guy in Mongolia who sells carpets; use your van
Linux in 2019

same as above BUT specialist master builders of all possible trades make themselves available to you 24/7 on something called the net; they do it for free and 95% of them are really kind and helpful ... they have also left one million clear instructions on the net too .... also the masterbuilder has built a comprehensive frame you can weave into to suit thyself
In the last 2 the masterbuilder charges NOTHING .... he accepts your gratitude but does not crave it
