Jesus. Another one of these? Every freaking day. (Promise it’s different)
I personally like mint and pop!os for new users, but for this user I want to try something windows like with more sex appeal. I don’t want to have to touch this computer again. Proprietary software is not an issue/consideration. User is techier than most. What has your experience been with kbuntu? Pros/cons? Other suggestions?
I used Kubuntu in college quite a bit and very much enjoyed it. No issues myself.
Of course, Linux mint KDE edition is a suggestion, but it’d be easier for your friend to find help online with Kubuntu as they can just google the name instead of knowing what’s a plasma issue and what’s a mint issue.
