    They’d probably love a Linux system not by Google just as much.

    You could try Mint, it’s pretty friendly in my experience, the GUI installer (with the full apt and flathub repos) helps, and Mint can support auto updates which will help the non-tech savvy a lot!

        Also, this is exactly why the OS should auto update for people like them, rather than them having to use the updater and fill in their password and whatnot
