The people who only use a browser are supposed to understand the obfuscation issues Linux has, something that even the fedora installer is renowned for struggling with?

What obfuscation issues? I don’t want to pick much on this because it’s probably a typo or mistranslation, but it’s very weird.

I merely said that’s ignoring the direct issue and the underlying complications those pushing for Linux constantly ignore for new and beginner users. Folks should instead make with what they have, what they can.

No, folks should make informed decisions. If somebody can move from windows to Mac or vice versa, they can use Mint.

It’s the equivalent to asking for help with a car issue and being told to buy a new car. Ignoring the learning curve, time, and setup. A bootable drive is a complicated thing to understand for the largest demographic.

No, buying a new car is the equivalent to what Microsoft is telling them (buy new PC) if they want to have an OS with security updates.

Also notice how you said Chromebook or Android, however not any proper Linux distro because it sadly isn’t there for the hobby enthusiasts

No, I told because those are mainstream. Stop projecting your opinions.

Let’s agree to disagree.
