    No friend you don’t get it, if you don’t have to memorise a list of commands in order to be able to execute a program, it’s a shitty OS, trust me friend

        That there’s not a UI showing you the possible options, there’s just a black screen and online documentation, so people don’t even know what to look for

        It’s not good for beginners. I’ll give him that. This whole thread is about getting a laptop your mom can figure out.

        If you end up being full time tech support then it’s not worth it.

        That being said, I gave one of the most computer illiterate people Linux mint and she was able to browse the internet just fine.

        Chrome Os is probably the best happy medium at the moment though for people who don’t want windows but want a windows like experience

      I REALLY want it to be my primary OS. First, I couldn’t get my GTX 3070ti to load correctly. Then I wanted the ability to have my browser windows to do a 50/50 split on my widescreen monitor. This isn’t native. I spent time on stupid flatpaks and stupid terminals and endless forums and chatgpt and finally gave up.

      The UX design is bad.
