KDE really is what windows promised to become back in the XP days and just never did.

You would be surprised by how many people buy a new computer, just because Windows end support. Most are not aware of Linux or think its a complicated geek system that only hackers use, because they read some weird comments about and from Linux users. At this time, campaigns like these are needed.
Exactly, I’m trying to work with my local library to host a free W11 upgrade workshop with volunteers and even they’re like “um does anyone care about this?”
Why would you want people you upgrade to 11?
Some people just like having a UI built out of javascript and the contents of their entire computer sent to a Microsoft datacenter.
It’s better for them to upgrade to windows 11 than stay on unsecure OS.
I plan on offering Linux as well but I’m thinking of older people who I simply want to make sure have a computer that continues to get updates. While I personally run everything in my personal life FOSS I can recognize that’s not necessarily the right move to switch up someone’s entire computer and then peace out. I think of it as harm reduction, in the same way I volunteer for needle exchanges. I offer information and support to get off heroin but for those who aren’t ready I offer clean needles. Sorry I know this was a long ass reply and your question was probably rhetorical, but that’s why
My suggestion for people finally looking to switch from Win 10 to a Linux distro; if you have an Nvidia card, avoid Gnome (desktop env. many distros ship with it). It’s unfortunate since Gnome looks and feels great but my lord is it unstable on Nvidia drivers. I’ve tried to stabilize on my RTX 3080 but no luck.
My folly was HDR support, and boy that aint easy.
Nice article. But a little bit too wordy and long. They need to shorten this a bit, if this is an initial page trying to make it clear.
