Hello there. Was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a Linux distro for grandparents? They are over 70 years old, with an old HP desktop and laptop running Windows 10. All they need is a Web browser, so no need for special software or wine to run Windows programs. Would preferably like something that is low maintenance so I don’t have to be constant tech support for them (apart from the initial install and setup). Thanks for any suggestions.
Mint or debian will do the trick. Set up a script to update the system and turn it into a button or desktop shortcut, name it something like “click here to update” and done
Thanks for the ideas. Will the update script still need sudo to run, or can it be done at an unprivileged user level?
I think in Mint you can set up auto update on their updater app
Im not sure but its probably fine to sudo it (now someone will come here and say it is a national security problem)
For that matter you could use the built in autoupdate tools
