Is linux good for someone tech illererate.
Now i've been considering moving to linux. I don't have much of a history using a computer and find it tougher to use than my phone. But I also really appreciate the foss movement. I've currently got an old laptop running windows 11 I think and it would prolly speed up with linux too. But I'm afraid I'd fuck smth up trying to download linux, understand it or while using it. Is it worth switching and how different is it to a windows experience.

Not really, to be honest.
I think Linux has come a long, long way. But unfortunately, "tech illiterate" has become much, much more illiterate.
It feels like Linux will forever be stuck in this 'just behind' mentality because companies like Apple and even Microsoft can funnel so many resources into making sure their distribution ;) is user-friendly.
That said, I think Microsoft sees the writing on the wall and is ducking out. Apple has no reason to. Their designers, unfortunately, are on point.
Except for most "tech illiterate" people, they just need a browser...
...which works identically in Linux and Windows. With the bonus of not running random exe files.
Uhh, no. Tech illiterate people might spend most of their time in a browser, but it's not all most of them need.
Thinking otherwise is just being out of touch with reality.
