Hello all,

I would like to transition my GF to linux.

To make the switch easy I’ll go for Ubuntu, but what would be the most windows-like desktop ?

Thank you!

Edit : thank you everyone, I’ll go with Mint instead then 👍 Thanks for the help!

    If you want her hooked; make it better (not like). You’re taking away Adobe, Office, Games, Topaz and other proprietary software, and you want to make it ‘like’ windows to boot? Outside of conspiracy theories about privacy and stuff, and people expecting an OS to run smooth at minimum specs; there isn’t much reason to use Linux over Windows, besides dynamic tiling window managers. I’d think you were an idiot if I were her, and you gave me the popular response here.
