If you do decide to go the web route, I recommend Build Responsive Real-World Websites with HTML and CSS and The Complete JavaScript Course 2024: From Zero to Expert! as a good starting point. Being Udemy, you don't have to pay full price. If they don't have a sale on now, they will fairly soon. The courses are worth full price though!
No one does comfy like cats
I disagree with you, I happen to think that the average person is intelligent enough to make an informed decision about their computing. They just have to forgo the learned helplessness that Microsoft and Apple have fostered since the early nineties.
I don't think it's unreasonable for someone who is dissatisfied to try a few out. Let's be clear here, if you're satisfied, then you're not going to even think about moving but more and more people are becoming dissatisfied, you can tell by the number of people on Reddit (yes I still lurk Reddit) asking about switching. Also, unless you're really a geek, it isn't going to be close to a technical decision - it will be purely gut-feel. I like this one, I don't like that one.
It's more like buying a car. Try a few out and settle on the one you like. You can even try them out online at distrosea
There's certainly a learning curve as it's a completely different OS. That's going to take time for sure. The problem is that people are so used to Windows or Mac that they forget they had the same learning curve when they started with whichever one they're using.
It's the same process as choosing which loaf of bread you like, or which car. You try a few out and decide which one you like. It's not hard.
I wonder how these people function in a supermarket
If it's available over the internet, it's a target.
No I haven't. some version of Linux has been my only OS since the early 2000s. You would think that it would be in Microsoft's interest to make it run well in VMs. Still, I guess it's just another reason that Windows is crapware.
What a fluffy little void!
Or run Windows in a VM if you need it.
I haven't even had it for two months and it does this.
I'm looking for good information on how to care for them and identify them as they weren't labelled. I guess that it's not as simple a giving them very little water?
If anyone knows a good website or book, I'd be grateful.
