Windows has gotten so bad that my family, who has been reticent about the switch since 2004, has finally given in and is swapping! So far I got them to agree with ChromeOS Flex (booo, but still better than windows) and Bazzite!

Be careful here… There will be a learning curve, and you may end up being the tech support person if you aren’t already.
WARNING they may suffer from less bugs, less annoying updates, better performance, less spyware and functional package management.
Before anyone says anything I am aware there are trade-offs due to switching from what you know.
Are you sure it would be less bugs? I havent been using windows for like 2-3 years, but it cant have gotten that bad, right?
I kinda already am. I hate working on their windows problems
If you already are their tech support, you probably could’ve forcibly switched then a long time ago.
At least, that’s how I treat my computer-illiterate boomer parents. For them, it’s “use what I tell you to use or you’re on your own.” To be fair, on their last few computers that was MacOS, but their iMac from 2013(?) got so obsolete it wasn’t good enough anymore, so as of a few months ago they’re on a mini PC running Linux whether they like it or not.
Yeah, fair. At least you’ll get fewer facepalms this way!
