You want people to use it? Make it easy. Not everyone wants to know how all their tools work and fix them on their own. Even you don’t.
Comment on Is it possible to install a distro directly from online ?
Eat_Your_Paisley@lemmy.world 1 day agoThe issue here is if you can’t be unassed to learn how to install Linux what are you going to do when you have problems. There’s a web installer for GrapheneOS it could probably be used as an entry point for someone to create the same for a.distro.

Why precisely should I care if Bob from Baltimore or Tim from Tulsa use Linux?

No, the point is that we should ensure that people can use Linux without needing deep technical support.

Sometimes. But I felt that I could talk for more than just myself.

I think it could work if it was a paid or had a service contract that insures support from creator so the person can have someone to help diagnose and correct things for a few months after install. Like I said in my initial comment GrapheneOS made it work but they only support a few generations of Pixel hardware desktop Linux supports most hardware going back 30 odd years it would be a nightmare.
