#linuxofficehour I’d like to try Linux. What distro do you recommend for a 10y/o iMac? I’d like a good u/I for my kids.

I'm taking part in #LinuxOfficeHour . If you're a #Linux newbie, or curious about what Linux is, I'm happy to answer any question and I promise to do so with no jargon, acronyms or ideology.
So go ahead and ask what a distribution is, or whether your specific program would even work on Linux, or how Linux would handle your 5-screen-2-keyboards-1.5-mice setup.
You can ask a question by tagging your post with #LinuxOfficeHour.

@planetf1 Yeah, seems like there might be a micro-exodus from Windows following Microsoft's shenanigans with Co-Pilot/Recall, so I figured I'd help folks along if I can.
Given that you have so much experience, perhaps you can join #LinuxOfficeHour too?

@chiraag Hey, how would you feel about adding the tag #LinuxOfficeHour to your profile as a way to make it easier for folks to discover people such as yourself who are willing to help with adoption of Linux?

Making myself available as a resource for anyone leaving Windows for Linux due to Recall (as if the ads and other built-in spyware weren't enough...).

@PurpleJillybeans In the spirit of this post, is anyone down to doing a sort of Mastodon #LinuxOfficeHour ?
I've been using #Linux for a bit, and feel I at least know what to search for when I encounter an issue. I'd be happy to help folks who want to dip their toes in.
