I've used Linux desktop for over 25 years now

It was mostly ready for all that time. I installed KDE Linux on my mother in law's computer for basic browsing and games like solitaire 15 years ago. She was in her late 60s and loved using it for almost a decade.

Linux today is not "ready", it's the only serious choice for an operating system for everyone

Yep, I installed Aurora on an aging parent's laptop, because I was worried they'd be the target of some well-crafted malware campaign (hence why I went atomic). Plus the parent doesn't have good privacy practice, and I know Microsoft was datamining everything they were doing.
