Except for most "tech illiterate" people, they just need a browser...

...which works identically in Linux and Windows. With the bonus of not running random exe files.

Directly, and without having to figure out which button to spam.

Still ass though.

Just install/update App Installer and use winget.

Np++ has tabs, plus it autosaves so it can pull out old unsaved text upon reopening. Plus, it has syntaxes highlighting based on the selected coding language. And all the plug-ins for extra functionality.

Notepad is simple no frills for basic text, but np++ is great for coding (it can sometimes be even better than IDLE for Python coding).

At least depending on the district, users can be sent directly to the store page.

Windows, however, needs a choice screen.

Which is why beginners don't use Arch.

Including a trial to incentivize users into paying for the software doesn't make it "built-in".

And JDownloader is the more useful one for easier download from file hosters.

Command line in general, not just Linux.

Forgetting to quoteblock spaces in Windows won't be pleasant either (especially when Windows has a Sydtem directory called "Program Files".

Not my Kubuntu experience, and sounds like something broke.

Which can happen with Windows too.
