To be fair. This can be applied to apple and windows users sometimes.

    It’s actually really easy, the best is to start with Linux From Scratch. That’s how you get a couple of hours of heartwarming fun and games.

    Start on your grandmother’s PC she can join the fun

      Great, thanks. But isn’t she going to be confused by the lack of anything to click on? She doesn’t know how to “hack” or “code” or whatever you Linux brainiacs do lol…?

        She will catch right on, just trust my advice. A “mouse” is overrated, I haven’t used on in years. Once you memorize the man pages(just a few minutes) should be smooth sailing

        Gaming on linux is surprisingly good right now. Other than those games that require kernel level anti-cheats, most games work really well.

        … But in case it wasn’t clear, the user suggesting linux from scratch is joking. Use Linux Mint or Ubuntu if you’re starting your linux journey. Try it on a virtual machine, for instance.

          Nah I’m happy with my Gentoo box sporting Lutris, just doing some light hearted trolling.
