    they are not wrong that for the regular person, who struggles with even the most basic IT shit, there still isn’t a full “finished” option for them,

    My dead mother, who couldn’t run windows for more than 6 months without trashing the install used mint without issue for years before she died in like 22. If my tech illiterate mother can do it, just about anyone can.

    The average user basically just needs a web browser and some office tools. If they can’t figure out how to use those in a different interface, they probably need to attend a ‘remedial computers 01’ course.

    Facebook works just as well on Linus as windows. Most people are too scared to try, not unable to use it in my experience.
