Not only should we not recommend Linux we should be more “elitist”. If a user wants to use Linux we should provide help but we should not convince. Linux is a fundamentally technical system due to its high skill celling. It will also never be able to do everything Windows does, I may be ok with that (and most Linux users are) but the average person may not. Also why do we need to advertise? More users doesn’t mean anything. The only thing that matters is more programmers who are willing to contribute and maintain along with corporate sponsors.
TLDR; there is nothing wrong with telling someone to not use Linux if they aren’t already

Who cares, when you need a device for school and work having the most up to date packages isn’t the biggest priority.
If you want to use the device for school and work I highly recommend a stable distro over rolling release. When it comes to stability nothing beats Debian and Debian 12 recently released so now is a good time to install it.

Windows 11 was so buggy that simply plugging in a USB device caused it to crash, I joked about installing Linux then I actually did. I have not looked back since.
Microsoft will probably never truly catch up with KDE

Linux@lemmy.ml•change my mind: Ubuntu does the same thing as Android
1·2 years agoAndroid generally refers to a complete Android system that includes Google software and services along with additional OEM bloat. Meanwhile ASOP is extremely bare bones and parts of it are being abandoned.

Linux@lemmy.ml•change my mind: Ubuntu does the same thing as Android
10·2 years agoI’ll address all your points
- It’s just GNOME but slightly modified
- How? Gnome includes a terminal that technically exists (even if slow)
- Just use sudo
As for the differences
- Ubuntu is open source (Android =/= AOSP)
- Sudo is enabled
- Ubuntu repository
- Gnome is a proper desktop (and can even be a traditional desktop with extensions)
- Can be heavily modified
- Telemetry can be disabled
- The most controversial feature (snaps) can be removed
- Ubuntu uses the standard Linux kernel
- It’s a desktop operating system
- It’s not owned by a multi billion dollar ad company

Ohhh, I the title is just confusing. I thought it meant companies that support Israel. Nevermind, but companies that don’t are sadly rare.
