Say a friend is looking for a new system, and said person is not particularly savvy with technology, what system would you point them toward?

    Are we assuming this person has never used any other operating system before?

    Because I do think a lot of the perception of Linux being more difficult is just because people who grew up on Windows or MacOS have gotten so used to those that the inertia of trying something new is what’s hard about it.

      The person described may have some Windows or Mac experience at school or work, maybe they got an iPhone or Android but never considered getting their own computer.
