This is how I feel about installing Linux. It never gives you a basic/easy install guide. It's ways an r/restoftheowl situation
EDIT - A lot of these responses are proving my point. Very easy to understand instructions if you know computers and computer terms. Not so much if you don't.
Also, people saying Linux is easier to install than Windows, totally forgetting that most people don't install Windows, it comes pre-installed, so the comparison is irrelevant
2nd EDIT - For the record, took a test and it said to try OpenSuse, Kubuntu or Zorin OS.
Going to go for Zorin OS. So if anyone has a detailed beginner guide to installing this it would be much appreciated.
I was drunk and surfing the internet on my laptop when I got frustrated with windows crashing constantly. An hour later I had installed Linux. Half of that time was backing up my files.
