I tried getting my mom on Linux mint. Kinda made me realize it's not as user friendly as I thought. I would go with windows or macOs if they just want everything to "work"

    The problem i see with Linux is that we all seem to have to rely on interpreting documentation on some level, whereas on Windows or Mac people search a problem, some article vaguely describes the issues they have, said article recommends [Insert Software Installer Here] to resolve aforementioned issue, people are pleased their issue is resolved without actually knowing what really changed on their system.
