    +1 for Linux Mint for the power user. They will fell familiar and can start their journey from there. The most important concept I would explain would be package managers and flat pack, as in vanilla Windows there is no such thing.

    The second one would be regular updates and that you have to do a little maintenance from time to time

    Mint would be my recommendation for the noob as well. It is a clean distro and does not require a lot of maintenance except regular updates.









  • Thanks for the advice!

    My Apple devices are from work and we are able to use them privately with admin rights. On my private account I have mostly open source software like Quodlibet for my music collection, Firefox, Inkscape, and so on. My Mailaccount is from a small German privacy by design provider. I have a Synology NAS I run Paperless NGX and Jellyfin on. I switch Operating systems regularly.

    I think I am well set up 😁.
