    Installing Linux through now-ubiquitous Calamares takes just a few minutes, it explains every step (of which only one is actually technical, which is drive partition, and the rest are like selecting time zone and admin password), and it’s extremely intuitive. It is literally easier than installing Windows.

    But yeah, most people never installed Windows either, and just get it preinstalled.

      Peanuts for me but i am already in. Now try explain it to your (grand) parents.

      Most people don’t know what a partition or a bios is.

      I agree its not harder then installing windows but there is a reason that people ask me to install their windows.

        Which is true, a lot of people see it as black magic. They are just used to what the product comes with, even if you could install iOS on an Android phones or the other way around, people would still buy an iphone cause it comes with it.
