Complaining about a downvote, gets you another downvote. Stop whining about fake internet points.

So what? Most people are using Linux for the privacy benefits. Does privacy sound like a good reason to use Chrome?
“I use Libre Office”
“I use _____ ______”
I use Fedora Workstation. I do use the terminal, each morning I install my updates by typing “sudo dnf upgrade” and enter the password. When that is done I type “syncthing” to start that service. The rest of the day I don’t touch the terminal.
I could install the updates through the “software store” but terminal is faster and no reboot is required, afaik.
Once in a while I do update an app which is almost as easy. Download the rpm file (typically there is a link in the app that needs updating) open terminal, cd Downloads, ls, sudo dnf install “package name”, password, exit.
For context, I started on Linux last April. Previous “laptop” was an android tablet with a physical keyboard and mouse. I did buy a used Thinkpad and install Fedora myself which was very easy.
My 75 year old father, who isn’t a techie, can handle this. Your Window buds should be able to as well.
Ok. Wait 1 week, if I haven’t provided the citation … wait another week. 😍
