Any recommendations for a linux distro that i can set up and be reasonably sure my non techy SO won’t break accidentally? The set up doesn’t have to be easy it just has to not break once I leave her alone with it. My first thought was popOS.
My plan is to have 2 profiles and not give her access to sudo. I just don’t want to have to go into it unless she needs a new program.
Pop all the way
I’ve had my wife on Pop for 3-4 months now but she performed some update in the Pop Shop this week that totally borked the bootloader. I was not able to repair or even get it to see her hard drive.
I was able to mount the drive using the Pop live USB and backup her data. I moved her over to Bazzite, which is what I use.
I have PCs here running pop updated the same way, no issues. Are you sure it wasn’t a hardware problem?
I should probably clarify that I think my wife did something wrong and not Pop. I ran it smoothly for months before moving to Bazzite on my item machine. She knows enough to be dangerous and may have changed something without knowing what it did.
An atomic system would be more SO proof for me.
maybe not for a few months since they’re gonna be launching COSMIC this year, which will likely be buggier than usual for a bit.
Sure but 22.04 is LTS without COSMIC and you’ll have plenty time to upgrade to 24.04 with COSMIC
People are complaining 22 packages are getting stale… But these people should be using fedors anyway lol
Ah lol then don’t use LTS? The alpha is out for 24.04
