I love the idea but not the messaging. Older folks & non-nerd people - a vast majority of the demographic of people who would benefit from this campaign, if I had to guess - aren’t going to want Linux or “fresh new software”. They want a computer with a web browser, an Office suite, and an OS/layout that functions exactly the way they expect it to.

If you tout so much change, they’re going to lose interest. I’d argue they’d lose interest seeing technical words like “software”, since all they know on phones and computers are “apps”.

However, If you instead show them side-by-side how they can do the exact same tasks with nearly identical steps and also emphasize the benefits like cost effectiveness and speed… they’ll just say “okay great, can you do it for me?”

Linux will never catch on to the home users. It’s a schizophrenic system. The difference between Debian, Arch, and Fedora, is like saying Windows 7 programs can not be installed on Windows 10, nobody will ever talk about Windows 10.

People want to be able to download programs from websites, double click and install it. The whole “distribution” thing is stupid and is a wall blocking mass adoption. There’s people that only know how to use Adobe programs. People want brand name programs, not alternatives.

I use OpenBSD and FrerBSD, I’m setting up a BSD router, but for gaming, that is all exclusively on Windoes.

One tip if you truly want people you know to install Linux, learn how to do all of the configuration and maintaintence through SSH. If you are available at anytime to SSH and look at something, that would open up a few people willing to try. For example if someone calls you and says they want a program,you SSH in, type the command to install the program, and tell them it will be listed in the menu in a minute when it’s dine

If it helps you could probably update your title to End of 10 - Campaign to upgrade Windows 10 PCs to Linux. At the moment it’s a bit tricky to understand.
