Is this a decent OS to move users off Win too that I won’t have to do a lot of remote maintenance on? I have a few varied OS’s installed on machines around and Cinnamon I have found to look/feel a lot like Windows 7 which would benefit the learning curve for family/friends looking or needing to find an OS to install on a machine that isn’t newer.

Curious if anyone has used this, and if so if it is a good fit for those 60+ aged family members and such. They have all used Windows for work at least a decent amount, so keeping things similar is always good. A decent App Store would be nice though. I hated the default store in Pop_OS.

If I could say do updates and reboot every once in awhile and you should be fine it’d be great. Remoting in with RustDesk and sudo Apt Update/Upgrade being all that is needed also would be great, but you know how that goes. Someone will break something, and I just want something intuitive enough that they won’t do it often.

    My laptop struggled with plasma, but works just fine now with xfce. Even plays 1080p YouTube videos. But plasma was too much for some reason. I suppose the limit here is my 4gb ram
