   I put my mom on Linux 2-3 days ago. It actually works great because Winblows 10 was eating more RAM than you can imagine and all she wanted to do was zoom call and excel and chrome.

     @pawlicker A lot of normies are aware of it, they just think it's some weird hacker OS.

     I remember hearing about it as a kid. I think it was mentioned in a PC game. It was one of those where both the Windows and Mac binaries were on the same disc, but it had a Linux binary as well. Despite that, it was always that mythical OS that nobody I knew uses. I didn't see it in action until my older brother tried a Ubuntu Live USB around 2010.

     The only reason more people aren't talking about Linux at this point is normies don't know about it, and nerds online just don't give a shit and declare defeat because they couldn't get their 80 year old mom on it.

     Could we just stop pretending, that Linux is user friendly? Maybe at least for a week? No?
