Jenna with her old laptop, now updated to GNU/Linux! She'd stopped using it some time ago because #Windows had become so slow that it was unusable. A project of our local #Library where I #Volunteer. We spent some time installing then a brief introduction to the basics of using #GNU#Linux and a few of the apps.
She was excited to have a working computer again and, bonus, touch screen worked perfectly which made her extra happy.

@eu_os is just a hobby, won't be big and professional like #Windows11.

Reason 7 To Choose Linux 😍
You decide when to install updates and reboot your computer!
Security updates are critical. They should be done early and often to keep your computer safe.
But you don't want your device to force an update - and then reboot - while you're working.
With #Linux, the decision when to update is yours.
