You’re answering your own question :)

Well if you installed and set it up by yourself you already are way more advanced than a normal user. But again one easily is blind to that fact.

One easily gets blind of the fact that it takes quite a lot of knowledge of computers to run Linux. You often see stuff that scares the shit out of a regular user.

The problem is the experience is not customized for a person who doesn’t care HOW it works. They just want to do their stuff without hassle.

I’ve tried this a couple of times and mostly I end up being a 24/7 computer fixer hotline and end up installing macOs or windows in the end to make everyone happy

I tried getting my mom on Linux mint. Kinda made me realize it’s not as user friendly as I thought. I would go with windows or macOs if they just want everything to “work”

Sounds like a beautiful place to start a family in.

Is is cuz she’s black? 🤔

Sooo… Is there an alternative to be secure other than switching to another OS? Not that I’m doing anything interesting but I would like to have at least a bit of privacy.

So you kinda answered and reinforced what I said. American culture it is!

It’s American culture so why shouldn’t they mock it?

I’m amazed that they put scientists on this. A toddler could see these results coming. Well at least a European toddler. American toddlers are probably eating crayons with their parents.
