I’ve had my dad using fedora for many years now, and he’s the opposite of tech savvy. Honestly, I get less tech questions/problems from him than my other family members that use Apple products. It stays out of his way and is a safe secure environment that’s not collecting his personal information.

Same with my mom. She is so terrible with tech (older lady that doesn't understand that email can be accessed from a browser, or what a browser is for that matter). She was always running into wild issues with windows. One day a few years ago I bought an old computer off ebay, installed Mint, showed her around for a few minutes.... and that has been the end of my IT support tenure. Praise Zeus.
