    Yep, to me there are two groups that linux works well for (at home)

    1. tinkerer type who likes new tech.
    2. completely computer/ tech illiterate type ( like my wife or mom)

    In the 2 category if they just need a computer for netflix, browsing, email and zoom calls you set them up with a stable diatro and it works the same every day with no windows surprises.

      Yep, I agree with that breakdown. It’s the people in the middle: tech literate enough to need their computer to do a lot, but not sufficiently interested in tinkering to spend time arguing with their OS, that are often better off using Windows or MacOS.
