Linux for a Windows & Android person (Advice needed)

submitted by

I need to install an OS for someone whose first impulse upon seeing a screen is to touch it, because they are young and their first assumption is a touchscreen.

They know their way around Windows and Windows is probably tought to them at school, so Windows might actually be the smart move…
but I fucking hate it.

Is ZorinOS or similar polished enough that I can leave it to someone whose tech literacy is centered around Roblox, TikTok and evading parental locks? I don't want to normalize the Windows-bullshit. But I don't want their first Linux-experience to be frustrating.

That has nothing to do with windows 10 looking like kde.

Oh, you're talking about Windows 10 specifically then? I took it you meant generally.

KDE has looked and mostly (yay workspaces!) worked like Windows since the first version. I remember I was there.
