Today at the grocery store a sweet older lady approached me and asked if I knew anything about computers. I said yes I do, and she produced a mouse saying that her son set up Linux mint for her and she was wondering if the mouse was compatible. It needed kernel version 2.6 or newer so I said that the mouse should work, guessing mint itself was probably newer than that kernel. Happy with my answer, we chatted a little, then she thanked me and left.
It was a nice experience, so I thought I should share!

What grocery store and where? I set up Linux Mint for my Mom. She’s 67.

More Finns should be using Linux, specially considering its Finnish origins.
Also, hello from the other side of Östersjön 👋
