@jaggedrobotpubes @zdhzm2pgp have you considered Mint. It's almost as user friendly as Windows.

The only thing I haven't been able to work out is SMB sharing which I need for my server that currently runs Windows and for my Jellyfin server.

I installed Bazzite on my ROG Ally to get rid of Windows. I have a gaming laptop with Windows installed for 3 games that aren't compatible with Linux and that's all it's used for.

@Zerush @muusemuuse all of that "crap, spy- and bloatware" is baked into the OS and the only reliable way to remove it isn't not use Windows.

The problem is 100% the OS.

A. Fuck Adobe
B. I tend to direct people to Linux Mint. It's so user friendly and similar to Windows its perfect for the Windows Refugees to start out with. It's what I installed two months ago after having used Windows since Windows 95.
