There’s always one “I gave it to my mum” post on these. I don’t know if it’s always you, but man, it’s starting to get very funny.
Yes, my parents are on an Android tablet now as their sole computing device. Want to start arguing for the year of Android desktop? Sure, “for most applications” everything happens on a browser.
That’s not what people have desktop PCs for, though, is it? You may be surprised to know I also don’t run Windows 11 on my phone. For the same reasons it’s less comfortable to run Linux on your desktop PC, incidentally.
For the record, I actively tried to use my Manjaro install to work whenever possible. I only switched back and forth between it and Windows when one broke or something didn’t work, as a bit of a test. Turns out I ended up in Windows like 80% of the time.

It’s fine, but not ready for mainstream.
If it’s good enough for mums, it’s good enough for a lot of people. Because mums are the mainstream.
