Also the kids mom (my co-parent) is now on Aurora which is basically the same as Bazzite just less gamer centric. Both are really slick modern Linux experiences so far imho.
Check out Aurora for all your friends and family members you want something really awesome, low maintenance and pretty indestructible for. We've not used it for long but it seems really fantastic. Like the distro I would dream up for mainstream (desktop non gamer) users. Or Bazzite if they are gamers. Easy!
That's three less Windows machines I'm responsible for... whoopee! (Mom was previously using Mint.)
2026 is the year of the Linux desktop! ;-) ;-) ;-)
I'm sticking with LMDE myself because it's been perfect for me for 15 years already.
Thanks OP
