    Good point.

    Mint wouldn’t run on my other Asus laptop which is why I ended up on Debian. I think it was a discrete GPU issue booting to a black screen.

    I know most Linux users probably wouldn’t want Chrome anyway, but since it’s the most popular browser and this post is discussing the greater populace, I think it was a valid point - same as how a n00b booting to a black screen is an issue.

    Having to fetch gnome tweaks to get a right click on a trackpad is another - that might just be a Debian thing.

    Agreed. Just put Debian on a 17" i7 Asus laptop tonight as win11 didn’t like the track pad or the display adapter.

    To get Chrome on, had to download a deb file, then manually open it with a right click and choose software installer since it wanted to open an archive instead.

    Just little things like that are tedious for the n00b.
