I helped SO move to Linux on their PCS. They dont touch windows except for work,and they're happy .our media center PC runs Linux and they're adept at navigating it, even doing some light terminal commands! And they are not super techy

Ive been getting them into f droid and removing garbage spyware apps on their s23. For now.

We are both getting pixels with graphene in the near future.

If you show them how good it is, many people are receptive. Just dont get too technical with it for them.
