The problem is that he is a fascist and fascists always need an external enemy to blame.

Love to read this, I'm exactly on the same journey! Was using Mint until a few days ago, and now I'm on Aurora. There is a bit of a learning curve due to the atomic factor (some apps aren't in Discover), but overall I'm happy with the stability.
Linux is truly wonderful and I look forward to learning more and seeing it grow. Fuck Microsoft, I'm done with their crap.
Sorry to say, but both Zen and Floorp were obvious honeypots from the beginning.
Unsolicited advice, but don't adopt the latest browser/search engine/OS that promise privacy and/or security, and you'll avoid a lot of disappointment. Most fall apart at the seams within a year or less.
If the one browser/SE/OS you currently use works, stick with it until more research on the newer stuff comes out. Then you can reassess.
I agree with you, lol. The other day I tried windows 11 at a store, and it was a pain. The learning curve was bigger from windows 10 -> 11 than from windows 10 -> KDE.
I'm curious about your choice of Gnome for your wife, though. If she's hopeless with computers, why give her a less (imho) intuitive DE to play with?
