How do you lure your kids off iPhones?
Give them MacBooks…running a “cool” version of Linux. Snagged 2 old Airs for just €50 each.
Wiped macOS, & installed @elementary - a clean, distro that feels familiar to macOS users but comes with a lot less bloat. 
Now they’ve got “cool” Apple gear, with the the rich world of #Linux that respects their freedom and sparks curiosity.

    I think at some point its best to identify kids who stand out and nurture them so they can maximize their potential.

    Like it or not, most people are just too stupid to appreciate the value of free software.

    Telling kids that they’re all equal does more harm than good in the long term, because it’s not true.
