My mom has a business and mostly uses Windows and Mac OS X; I mentioned Linux because it could help save money.
She is unfamiliar with Linux though; I gave her some basic introduction (uncertain if it’s any good, but sure), but I would like to be able to ease her into Linux if she prefers it.
A decade ago, when my moms laptop stopped working, I installed Fedora on it and set everything up for her, and she loved using it for years until my dad got her a mac 🙄
Now her mac is deprecated and I’m sure that fedora laptop still works just fine lol

This is the solution. Also use a distro that doesn’t need 3gb updates every week. Those tend to be annoying for casual users.

I think Ubuntu is a good start. If it runs smooth. The flashy look is impressive for newcomers I think.

That’s how the federation works :) You can have your account on one server but follow other sublemmies that your server is connected to!
You can look at feddit.de and copy a local sub and paste it into the search on lemmy.ml and then it will show up there and you can subscribe as well

I think Fedora is just as user friendly, but better than Ubuntu. But, yeah, I know Ubuntu is popular ( I just don’t like it).
