I use Fedora Workstation. I do use the terminal, each morning I install my updates by typing "sudo dnf upgrade" and enter the password. When that is done I type "syncthing" to start that service. The rest of the day I don't touch the terminal.

I could install the updates through the "software store" but terminal is faster and no reboot is required, afaik.

Once in a while I do update an app which is almost as easy. Download the rpm file (typically there is a link in the app that needs updating) open terminal, cd Downloads, ls, sudo dnf install "package name", password, exit.

For context, I started on Linux last April. Previous "laptop" was an android tablet with a physical keyboard and mouse. I did buy a used Thinkpad and install Fedora myself which was very easy.

My 75 year old father, who isn't a techie, can handle this. Your Window buds should be able to as well.

Finally, someone else in this thread that sees the potential.

Isn't there a way to lock Wikipedia articles so they can't be edited by just anyone?

I felt this place was a ghost town when I first started - maybe 10 posts a day. Now, there is plenty to read. Partly due to me finding more communities and overall more people here.

Competition is good. Also the less data Reddit has, the slower A.I. models can be trained.

Haven't tried piefed so I can't say.

That would be nice. It can probably be done by blocking images at the browser level. Wouldn't be the same as a text only site though.

The only Reddit alt I need is Lemmy.
