The people who only use a browser are supposed to understand the obfuscation issues Linux has, something that even the fedora installer is renowned for struggling with?

What obfuscation issues? I don't want to pick much on this because it's probably a typo or mistranslation, but it's very weird.

I merely said that's ignoring the direct issue and the underlying complications those pushing for Linux constantly ignore for new and beginner users. Folks should instead make with what they have, what they can.

No, folks should make informed decisions. If somebody can move from windows to Mac or vice versa, they can use Mint.

It's the equivalent to asking for help with a car issue and being told to buy a new car. Ignoring the learning curve, time, and setup. A bootable drive is a complicated thing to understand for the largest demographic.

No, buying a new car is the equivalent to what Microsoft is telling them (buy new PC) if they want to have an OS with security updates.

Also notice how you said Chromebook or Android, however not any proper Linux distro because it sadly isn't there for the hobby enthusiasts

No, I told because those are mainstream. Stop projecting your opinions.

Let's agree to disagree.

Linux has a lot of issues with information being hard to find. Not purposely or done with malice. Just an issue inherent when dealing with hundreds of distros, versions, and hardware variables alone are a bitch.

I love Linux btw, it just sadly isn't there for my use case. It's not the community, it's just a slow and arduous transition. Just a good emp away from a reform lmao

That's the beauty of the internet friend. They have information, p2p, and hope. :)

However when you ask for help unscrewing a rounded Phillips, someone will tell you about the optimal screw to prevent it. It's helpful, but most people are just trying to fix their shit and don't design it.

Both CAN be true about the car example, that's the beauty about information! We are well informed.

Please recommend me distros is what that means, I'd love to learn about them. Sadly everything I've tried is unstable or constantly deters me from doing anything right when I want it.

Microsoft is dog shit but it just works, that's the benefit. The same benefit android has nowadays, which Google used to help make ChromeOS a smooth transition. I miss old android phones, trackball on android 4 was still a blast even with the 5 minute boot and overheating.
