How do you lure your kids off iPhones? Give them MacBooks…running a “cool” version of Linux. Snagged 2 old Airs for just €50 each. Wiped macOS, & installed @elementary - a clean, distro that feels familiar to macOS users but comes with a lot less bloat. Now they’ve got “cool” Apple gear, with the the rich world of #Linux that respects their freedom and sparks curiosity. Kids 1, Dad 1 Win-Win #opensource #linux #elementaryOS #macbook #apple
I’m planning to introduce my kids to Linux at a really early age. I was using DOS at 4-5 years of age. They’ll be using Linux. I hope by hooking them up young, they’ll grow resistance to corporat OSes and devices. Plus I’d be able to delegate the maintenance of the self-hosted services to them. 😄
