It’s very easy to get a Gnome look and feel with Plasma nowadays.
I still don’t know why Gnome loves wasting 3 % of the screen on an empty black bar, tho.

That is absolutely amazing
Not my experience so far with my single service I’ve been running for a year. It’s making me even think of opening up even more stuff.
Maybe you are just dealing with the new Plasma 6.1 feature for multi-monitor setups? It’s pretty useful, but I find it annoying too, and thankfully this is KDE, so there’s always the possibility to make it your way.
It definitely is useful, I use it for train tickets, or user QR codes for things such as IKEA, supermarkets, gas stations… It’s quite literally a virtual wallet where you have all your “cards”, but they are QRs.
This way, for example, you don’t have to install every single app to get the QR code that identifies you in every market. You just paste them into this wallet and you are good to go!
NFC payments require a transaction platform and these things are only possible with banks or huge, “trusted” companies like Google/Apple.
Although things might start changing in Europe (for now) with GNU Taler.
Aesthetically, very similar, just some small improvements.
In terms of performance, features, etc… It’s way better.
Not for over-the-internet use
Debian is never a bad choice. Put some flatpaks there, backport some goodies, and install some kind of AnyDesk system. Put some KDE Plasma and they’ll think Windows finally runs well again.
Nope, MacOS would be too different for them to handle. Linux Mint, or something with KDE Plasma would be way better IMO.
I could understand that some distros’ kernel had binary blobs, but the main kernel?? I was not expecting that if it’s true.
This is premium functionality, for those who don’t know.
Just like I am not a fan of Firefox derivatives, I am not a fan of modified ISOs for Windows.
This is because all the effort put on trust on a big company/community is now gone; now you must trust some unknown random dev.
Install official Windows and apply trusted tools to clean it up. Or better yet, install Linux. That’s my general advice.
Let’s face it, if you install Linux (or even Windows!) for your mom, you put VLC in there.
Yes, some other tools are better at some things, but VLC is the perfect choice for the “standard” user.
I don’t think symbolic will solve your problem at all
OsmAnd allows me to see changes in hours, for OrganicMaps I have to wait a full month.
Oh, I very much know that! But only on OsmAnd I can see those changes being applied a few hours later instead of a month later.

That’s what I said.
