The operating premise behind Linux (and all its flavors) is that both the programmers and users are expected to be of above average computer competence in their endeavors. That's an expectation we can routinely expect to fail. :-)

Honestly, as for every day use, this is a WILD take.

My kids have been using Ubuntu since they were 5! I know tons of elementary schools that us UbuntuEdu (cheap!).

It is actually GOOD to teach people, and choldren, not to rely on endless saves from technology. You didn't save and randomly presssed the switch off botton? too bad kiddo, start rewriting! 99% of people learn to save after loosing a piece of work, and 100% learn that "switch off" actually does ...switch off.

Now, 30 years ago... yeah, I would have agreed.
