My partner doesn’t do much on the computer except web browsing and writing. The Scrivener writing program had a Linux version at some point that was abandoned.
I wanted to see if anyone personally has used Scrivener with Wine and if it is fussy or not. How has your experience been?
I could set it up for them, but they’re not a tech person and will probably reject Linux if it breaks all the time and they have to get me to come fix it.
Extra irrelevant info: trying to decide on having them try Mint or Ubuntu. Fedora is my daily driver and I typically use a headless Debian install for servers, but I heard Mint and Ubuntu are pretty perfect and low fuss for Windows users.
This is a joke, right? Like, this must be a satire making fun of stereotypical Linux users?
Nope
Dude I was giving you an out. You could’ve been all “haha just kidding” and saved some face.
You shouldn’t try to force someone into liking something just because you like it. That’s not okay. Especially when they’ve politely and repeatedly expressed disinterest. If all they do is web browsing and writing then why would they even need Linux?
?
You are reading into this post a bit too deeply and inferring a lot of things from my post that I never said. I am not forcing my partner into this and they have not expressed disinterest.
