@neil I have seen a few pieces of "news" such as this, including one pointing at a distro that is skinned to look like Windows. None seem to mention that you can't just use all your existing software, etc. I'm a big fan of desktop Linux, but I don't think expecting people (many of whom will be elderly) to just relearn their entire software stack without help is a great plan

@steve @neil True, but IME a lot of people use mostly just a web browser. Some also use an email client, office suite, and comms apps like Signal/Discord/MS Teams. For them, moving to Linux won't be hard, as long as someone else can install it for them.
