you can put most desktop environments infront of people and they already know how to use it, old people fucking love mint when it's installed for them

getting people to actually install the shit themselves is a whole other thing, i thought the AI always on copilot shit would get people to switch but if my bluesky linux feed is any indication it's mostly just people complaining about windows and apple and being not to receptive to the suggestion of switching to Linux.

I think people like you underestimate how much fuckery goes on behind the scenes in some OSs.

Again, i dont begrudge anyone using other OSs, but i do dislike it when someone comes into a forum i frequent and complains about win this or apple that (in the linux/bsd section) etc and goes on to ignore a well formed alternative with many offers of help from other community members. So continue to use windows if you must. Heck i use it still myself because "reasons". Everything else is either LMDE or MXLinux.

New Fedora looks interesting, if i can scrape up some dosh for a good vid card for a lappy i may be able to drop win10 altogether.

Alternatives are not requirements. It is offered. Free, it may however cost you some time initially to learn a new paradigm or two. You needed to do this initially when you first got dos or windows 3.11. People are not born with innate knowledge.

If you dont wanna. Dont do it.
Linux distros dont care.
Just dont complain and ignore alternatives.

Just because it comes from louisiana doesnt mean thats who is attacking you. If it is an attack of some kind its prolly a bot net type. The infected machine "attacks" you on instruction from bot man.

I couldn't find a combo I enjoyed and am taking a break but I'll probably give it another try at some point.

Are they going past PoP? That's where I quit originally so seeing some later expansions could be really good.
paladin rogue + anything is solid AF, paladin and rogue really are enough on their own anything else is a bonus

I've heard rumors of going thru seeds of destruction, no idea how they would handle mecenaries tho hopefully skip them

progression from scratch will be nuts. being level capped until you clear each xpacs bosses will take forever to speedrun
