I’m visiting my parents for the holidays and convinced them to let me switch them to Linux.
They use their computer for the typical basic stuff; email, YouTube, Word, Facebook, and occasionally printing/scanning.
I promised my mom that everything would look the same and work the same. I used Linux Mint and customized the theme to look like Windows 10. I even replaced the Mint “Start” button with the Windows logo.
So far they like it and everything runs great. Plus it’s snappier now that Windows isn’t hogging all the system resources.
. If you are never using MSOffice for anything other than the most basic writing Libreoffice does cut it.
Does it tho? It can even render a simple, unformatted bullet list consistently:
Linux overall does just work for the most part if the person using it just plans on using the browser anyway.
With this I agree 100%.
Doesn’t look like a important difference to me, rich text documents are meant to be adaptive. If you want it to look the same everywhere, export to a pdf.
