minus-squareSayCyberOnceMore@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 year agoI came here to +1 Mint I’ve installed it on 3 laptops for different family groups and had 0 problems with either the laptops or the family using them To clarify that - with Ubuntu the UI was just a tiny step too different (than Win XP) for them to feel comfortable using… with Mint, no problems. The laptops vary, but 1 is ~12 yr old, another is new (well, 3 yr old now), but Mint was installed to dual-boot Win 10 when new. I use Arch btw
