He's a good bit older than that and has cancer, and is not able to sit at a computer long enough to learn a new operating system even if he wanted to. Which he really, really doesn't lol. He hates the thing with the fire of a thousand burning suns and only used it for his necessaries.

I'm also not familiar with any other operating system besides windows, outside of a brief foray into pi-hole years ago that I don't remember much about, so I'd have to learn it first. While I'd love to start playing around with Linux some day, unfortunately that day isn't going to be any time soon.
