LOL yes I try not to speak like a FOSSite when talking with newbies. “Arch Linux does not yet have an adequate solution for the hammer problem (when your computer is hit with a hammer) so I can’t recommend it.”

I mean, rollbacks are quite literally a feature to prevent breaking it. That said I’ve never even had to roll back once.

Fedora Kinoite.

• You will basically never need the terminal.
• Highly tweakable, but out of the box is very similar to windows
• It’s immutable (impossible to break)
• App “store” makes sense and is not weird.
• Extremely fast.

So true for all FOSS projects, the more successful they become the more new users expect a customer service dept.

Fedora is a solid choice. I recommend Kinoite because it’s familiar to Windows users and impossible to break.

• The Android widget (not app just the widget) does not have a monthly view.
• There is no office suite (I don’t know why this surprised me but it did).

Generally it’s been an overall positive experience.
