I don't know, my family are really, really not into that. And my dad was an IT guy, he taught me about Linux when I was 10. But now he becomes so burnt out and start to turn back to windows because there are too many compatibility issues (that's what he said, honestly my mind was blown at how he handles it ten years ago but not able to do it now when the compatibility has significantly improved. And he is an IT guy which is the craziest thing because I'm a f*cking mechanical engineer and that huge obstacle did not stop me from dual booting). But if he finally decides to give Linux desktop a chance again I would recommend EndeavourOS+KDE...

On desktop you can use web frontends like phtn. Honestly I would even love to use phtn on mobile as a pwa

Any distro would do, but for server Debian is always the most recommended and used

EndeavourOS KDE Plasma is my favourite! It's really really considerate and inherits all the arch linux advantage :3

Yea, this is completely okay, but there is a small difference - for stock /e/os ones, the Bootloader is locked. I am not sure about details but this would be a needed security feature for some applications

Oh, I apologize. I misunderstood your main concern, I though it’s about Google Play instead of Android.

Yes, the only choice for most mobile phones are either Android or iOS. Things like Pinephone and FydeTab Duo exists, but so rare.

You can purchase the /e/os version. But it is more expensive

I would say Fedora workstation if you hate the idea of getting arch-like distros but Manjaro if you just dislike the daunting procedures to get your arch work
