Open Source means Free Testing and Free code writing,  we all benefit.
You can write GUI pgadmin4 installer for  Linux

We welcome  CONSTRUCTIVE criticism  throwing up a link,  or snarky youtube
video then  saying "see I'm right",  will not get traction with people it
turns them off.  Remember we are doing this for FREE
Specifically how does EDB page support your position???

Enterprise DB maintains the windows installer as a give back to the
Community and promote Postgresql..   Postgresql installers have come a long
way over the years,  I remember a time when everything on Linux was
compile then install what a horrible amount of pain, Just getting the CD to
boot  to install Linux could  take  days because of hardware issues.

When writing criticism first step,  Document the issue, and be specific,
take screen shots, note the issue clearly then post it..

Postgresql has several ways to note and document issues,  Mailing Lists,
Wiki, IRC, create a Blog Post and post it on Planet.postgresql.org

99% of linux installers are done from the command line, and yes it goes
horribly wrong at times.
