Any recommendations for a linux distro that i can set up and be reasonably sure my non techy SO won’t break accidentally? The set up doesn’t have to be easy it just has to not break once I leave her alone with it. My first thought was popOS.

My plan is to have 2 profiles and not give her access to sudo. I just don’t want to have to go into it unless she needs a new program.

    Pick one of the stable channels from Universal Blue. You get the Fedora atomic goodness, but “ready” rather than “mostly ready”.

      Does it use the same flawed approach as Manjaro by indiscriminately delaying all updates (including critical security fixes)?

        It would be whatever Fedora is doing in stable, but that seems unlikely. I’m sure the internet has the answer.

        I’ve been on the latest branch for a year and it’s been rock solid across 2 different laptops.
