    Honestly the only people I try to “convert” to Linux are my friends who already hate Windows, which is most of them these days.

    Sadly a lot of them either still regularly use programs we can’t get running on Linux yet (okay it’s mostly Fortnite…). Or they’re not the most tech literate people and switching to a whole new OS seems like an impossible task.

    Only gotten two peeps on board the Linux train and they both had previous experience with it from school or work.

      Solution regarding Fortnite: Hook them on a game that runs well on Linux 😁.

        I didn’t want any epic software on my pc so installed Fortnite on my ps5 instead to play with friends that for some reason want to play that.

      Switching from W7 to a distro with a KDE Plasma desktop is much easier than the W10/11 ones imo. I find their changes to be irritatingly confusing at times and the standard Plasma layout is pretty much what you’d expect it to be, coming from Windows.
