    Exactly!

    My answer to everyone saying “but Linux is hard…!”

    No, it’s DIFFERENT!!

    If using Cinnamon was your first learning experience on a computer, you’d think Windows is the worst user experience in the world!

      I’ve always thought that Unix (and therefore Linux) was much more internally consistent and accessible than Windows ever was.

      Everything is in places that kind of make sense, there’s heaps of documentation that comes with the system, you can set it up how you like it, you can see everything… There are actual logs that aren’t hex gobbledygook…

      Exactly. And if you use a desktop like Cinnamon or KDE Plasma, it really isn’t that different, other than how you install software. I fully believe anyone can use it. Especially since the majority of computer users tend to only use them for browsing the web, email and light gaming. The learning curve is minimal.
