There are always stories of people installing Linux on their parents computer to provide them a more secure and stable operating system, seems interesting to share experiences.
Edit: I’m assuming that parents are okay with the changes, or do not care. Obviously do not force anyone to switch OS if they don’t want to.
Mint does not automatically install updates so people will ignore them. It for me also had a broken updater.
I don’t know of many distros that enable automatic updates out of the box, you usually have to enable it after installing.
You can do that in Mint too: https://linuxhint.com/configure-updates-automatically-linux-mint/
Fedora Atomic Desktops, many more “immutable” distros do
Immutable distros aren’t the norm though.
Didnt say that. I just said “Linux mint does not auto update so people will ignore it”.
It is useful that it can be enabled. But keep that in mind, I know people that ignore updates if they arent forced to.
