I don’t know if the LinuxPhones community is any different, but the Linux community will come after your ass for proposing Linux be made more accessible for the average user. The gatekeepers are intentionally kneecapping it.

I think the Linux community overall these days are pretty helpful and want people to succeed. Many distributions have become extremely accessible over the past 10 years.
