      Agreed. I used to be the tech support for my family members. Everyone I switched to Mint Cinnamon stopped calling me. (That’s also when I realised my relatives never call me to share good news or to ask about me.)

        Start installing malware on their machines that reminds them to call every once in a while.

      Perfect gateway for Windows migrants. This and Mint are excellent starter distros.

      I mean you don’t ever have to switch but many people do, if only to explore their options

        After using Mint for quite a few years, I’ve switched to NixOS. Still using Cinnamon, though, that DE won me over.
