  • My grandma got along with Mint for Facebook browsing and KPatience.

    If your mom is more into using real apps, plus the Windows UI, and you’re comfortable with some setup, I’d highly recommend Debian 13 with KDE Plasma and Flatpak, with the Flatpak-Discover integration. That’ll allow her to use lightweight, stable apps from apt, or more recent, but larger apps from Flathub, and install it all herself through Discover. Honestly, there should be a distro for that.

    I’d be using that myself if it weren’t for some very specific software I need from the AUR.

    I’m running klipper for my Ender 3 with almost that exact same config on a 2008 STI IS1415. It also manages to run i3 with qutebrowser without a hiccup. Compared to the Pi 3B+ I had before, I get a keyboard and screen to control the printer without running to my desktop on the other room, and the integrated wifi is actually pretty decent, it even shows the camera feed smoothly.
