I have a 5 year old niece and 73 year old father in law running Ubuntu. Everything is relative right? To me they’re Linux illiterate, if not computer illiterate. It’s not meant to be an insult, and I’m regularly amazed by some folks inability to get what they’re looking for out of a search engine.
All I’m getting at, is that Debian isn’t “easy” to everyone.
Setting engine timing when replacing a timing belt is easy to my brother in law who’s a car guy, but if I watched a YouTube video on it I’d probably still botch the job and blow my motor. It’s easy to him. Not to me.
but they get the same error messages and symptoms like on Ubuntu and Linux Mint (and Elementary OS), they know how to google/duck/bing/whatever right?
They may be newcomers but it would be wrong to consider them computer illiterate.
