I heard that in Homer Simpson’s voice.

I really liked it, I had the Flatpak version installed, but when opening larger text documents (with 20+ pages) it took forever to open them, so I stopped using it.
I’m also interested in openSUSE, but what held me back from Tumbleweed was the statement on their Wiki: “If you don’t know how to compile your own additional kernel modules and you don’t wish to learn or keep a very close eye on what is being updated, please don’t use Tumbleweed.” (https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Tumbleweed)
But here people say it “just works” and it’s a great distro. I’m torn :), I’d like to try it, but I’m not sure I wanna follow all updates all the time to make sure it runs fine.
Really cozy, I love it!
Thank you, this is great. I will keep it in mind next time I post something about NOYB.

I had some issues with an old HP Laptop not so long ago because it uses some weird Wifi that needs Bluetooth enabled and it was a hassle to get it working. In Mint it simply worked out of the box, so I stuck with it on that device. Mint with Cinnamon is also very similar looking to Windows and should provide a smooth transition for your grandparents.
45+ is “older people” to you?
What a stupid headline.
“So who are these people? They’re a bit more likely to be female. While both the comparison groups were roughly evenly split between male and female, the superspreaders were 60 percent female. They’re also older, on average 58 years old, nearly 20 years older than the sample as a whole.”
One important part for gaming is the graphics card - I cannot comment on that particular one, but I would recommend searching it like “nvidia rtx 4070 + linux” so you can find advice and recommendations. You could also hop over to https://www.protondb.com/, select that card and see what most people are running. Or there is this https://linux-hardware.org/ page, where you find lots of info about whats being recommended.
Nvidia used to be problematic with Linux, but I also have an older Nvidia card and haven’t run into any problems (yet). Also there’s lots of new development in that area, I’m sure it’s gonna be ok. Also some distros offer preinstalled Nvidia drivers that you simply select in a driver manager - that for example is the case for Linux Mint.
Keep at it, you got this and there’s so many people and resources online to help. Best of luck!
Glad to hear so many volunteered so quickly, awesome!
Hello and welcome!
Well, in that case, I hope you already subscribed to the following communites :)
and so on and so on
I hope you will enjoy your stay here, it’s always nice to welcome a motivated person who wants to contribute.
The usual suspects are Bazzite, Garuda, Nobara. But you can game on every distro. To give proper advice, some info on your hardware would be needed.
Back in the day we used Knoppix, I know it still exists, but no clue if it’s still viable?
Just for choosing: https://distrochooser.de/ - or put some distros with a tool like Ventoy on a USB stick and do a live install to test it on the actual system. The many options are a great thing, but of course not easy to get into at first. So I’d try not to overthink it, distrohopping is a hobby for some of us :D

Have a good transition and if you stick with Mint, I’d recommend the official forums for any questions: https://forums.linuxmint.com/index.php
I’m not too impressed so far. The drillevator mission is ok with 3, really annoying with 5 crystals to find. A better indicator as to where to find them exactly would be nice, sometimes you dig like one meter next to them and simply can’t find them.
Lost 2 escort missions due to people not knowing the new mechanic and not listening to ingame advice. That’s a lot of time going to waste.
The core stone is ok on some classes, others really struggle with the mobs cause they are tough to kill. I also realised that most people don’t know what to do still, so it will get better with time.
Getting a lot of disconnects since this season, yesterday right on the way to extraction - yet another real waste of time that gets really offputting. Yes, I could host every single mission myself, but if everybody does that, there’s not much coop left.
