    My mom is in her 70s, never has been techy, and has been using Linux as her daily driver for a solid eight years now. I have to do less troubleshooting for her now that she’s on Linux than I ever did when she used Windows. “You have to use the command line” is an extremely outdated criticism of desktop Linux.

      Yup. I got relatives started on Mint dual booted with Windows. They don’t use Windows as Linux just works.
