    I’ve been on linux for 15 years, very lazy, I never use CLI…
    The walled garden of most community repos & GUI package managers is easier & safer than windows, no defrag, no messing with a registry or periodic restores…

    I’m on Debian KDE stable via Spiral [choice of DE’s], nice user friendly install, Discovery as package manager, Btrfs & Snapper for recovery/backup, the dev is helpful, Debian help is easy to find

    My last daily driver Mageia

      I’ve installed Mageia for low tech seniors over the years, the online version up grade tool, just works, They never call :(
      I have an old think pad with Mageia as my backup, tolerates long periods without updates

      I like being on the mothership[Debian] :D

      But, mostly once the pc’s have hardware issues or the users go to phones & Chromebooks

      I don’t help people with the problem they ain’t got, if there is even the slightest interest, I’m there
