We all have opinions on how to procedurally get someone started using Linux. To mixed effect. I wonder if we could be more successful if we paid closer attention to the machine between the seat and the keyboard. What mindsets can we instill in people that would increase the likelihood they stick with it? How would we go about instilling said mindsets?
I have my own opinions I will share later. I don’t want to direct the conversation.
Dogged stubbornness. I use Linux because I refuse to give MS any more of my money, and I’m too stubborn to give up.
Scarred by abuse, but resolved to escape instead of developing Stockholm syndrome.
