How is me “forcing” somehow worse than Microsoft actually forcing people to use their ad-pushing, data mining spyware of an operating system? My “agenda” is simplifying an elderly person’s computing experience, protecting her from phishing/scams and allowing her the freedom of not having to worry about one other thing.
Weird take, bud.
Hey of it works for your pop and you keep stuff out of a landfill I say that’s a solid win.
Yeah it’s a very good overall distro. Things work well and it’s familiar enough to pick up and use.
My 77 year old mother-in-law runs Pop cause of me and loves it.
I remember getting a “winmodem” working on Mandrake back in the late 90s and thinking I was the smartest boy alive.
I’m going to give you the secret to switching. Go all AMD for your build, and leave everything you know about Windows software and how it works at the door. Learn to use Linux. Expecting it and Linux software to work like Windows is the pitfall.
Linux has great DAWs, bridges for vsts, alternatives for Adobe software and tons of games. The issue is your unwillingness to try something new, which is fine, but that’s not a knock to Linux.
Windows never has issues, does it?
You mean Nvidia hardware. Nvidia purposefully sucks overall on Linux. Don’t reply with “mine works great” because you’re lying or haven’t had an issue yet. Fuck Nvidia.
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
That’s how easy updating is on (Debian flavors)Linux.
This is the kinda BS that scares away new users. You’re objectively wrong, bud.
