weird thought but the problem of “Linux demands too much tech-savviness for the average person to be able to use it” might be sidestepped by having strong, diverse communities

like imagine a community with ~30 non-techies and 1-2 Fedi transfemmes who want an excuse to fuck around with Linux anyway, and the transfemmes get everyones’ computers up and running and fix technical problems when they arise and help with hardware compatibility. that way nobody is dependent on Microsoft but also nobody has to learn the intricacies of systemd or package management or the command line unless they want to
