Bet the user experience is light years ahead of whatever hacky windows modification they put on it by default

yes, but goes more towards a scientific approach rather than fantasious one like spore

thank you! your advice will be very valuable! i’ve had came across those ryzen thinkpads and found quite some nice ones, but didn’t knew they would fit me dimensions

thank you brother, you might have saved me from a bullet; t480s and t470s are much easier to find on my country than x260s and x250s, also it’s easier to get better deals on them.

Was planning to go for one of those because of size exclusively pretty much, i like compact machines and was planning for a tiny laptop. if it isn’t bothersome to ask, do you so happen to know a cheap thinkpad around 28 x 22cm?

what about the X line? particularly the x250 and x260? been thinking on getting one of those for a while because of their compact size

michael MJD, is that you?

SELinux, wine (and other apps) installed via user flatpak with proper permissions configued, coupled with ufw or firewalld, secure boot enabled and an immutable system should be fine, no?

Thank you, kind stranger, I haven’t noticed my formatting was messed up

On 5, i mean I don’t see how you can switch tasks with it, like you know, a dock, or a task manager widget in plasma or windows.

Latest plasma is not confusing at all tho, it works really well, in fact I have it setup in my SO’s mother and father laptop and they never once managed to break it, and never asked me how to do anything, just figured it out on their own, and they are not great with computers, I will they you that

I can point out some immediate problems:

1 - I can’t see the cursor, hope this is because of the screenshot tool you’re using, but if it’s too small elderly people may lose it.

2 - the icons and text on the top panel are light grey… The panel is white, this provides terrible contrast and is yet another thing elderly people won’t see well

3 - there are two ways to switch apps, the top panel, and the dock, this is needlessly confusing

4 - most people (inclusiding elderly) are most accostumed to windows, which you have changed in XFCE In favour of looks; if you wish to create something people can use with ease, you better go for the windows look to avoid friction.

5 - this doesn’t look like a very functional dock, which didn’t you use plank, or crystal dock? That would provide better functionality.

6 - why did you think gnome 2 was a good base for your project? Gnome 2 might be cool and all, but as all old Linux interfaces it is needlessly complex and quite outdated usability-wise, unless the elderly people you’re talking about are nostalgic Linux veterans they won’t find this amusing, intuitive, or otherwise familiar to use, much for the contrary

Also why are you reposting this?

Yeah, have you tried the simply optimised modpack too? It is really nice.

Still tho, the issue is really vanilla, they haven’t fixed it, sucks performance wise

Minecraft java currently is really laggy, this looks like a nightmare to run on low to mid range devices

VPN - Proton VPN (my suggestion)

Windows 10 - Fedora KDE

My suggestions if you want a smoother transition, repeated ones have Linux versions

computer /usr/share/ $>

And it’s based on fedora? Man, that’s great

Use distrobox brother, it is really underrated, I use it on my fedora PC so I can have access to the AUR all the time, you could even use Debian with it and have access the the AUR on a 2 year out of date install, seriously, it is really worth the effort of checking out, changed my Linux experience forever.

Works well in thunder
