My GF is not technical and had an old, old laptop that barely ran, so I gave her an Ubuntu USB drive and helped her boot from it, but she did the install all on her own. She even fixed a printer driver issue by doing some research and installing an updated driver.
But that just goes to show that Linux isn’t exactly hard if you know how to read.
These stories always feel so bizarrely insulting. Now listen bros, my girlfriend is a total dunce but even she, a woman, managed to follow instructions and execute an install wizard, just like a competent man would. And that is why 2024 is the year of the Linux desktop. #feminism

🙄
The important part is that she is non-technical, not that she’s a woman.
