They're in their 60's, finally convinced them.
They say things like "This is the same..."

Last time I tried convincing em to install Linux, they said "I'm on it" to end up ghosting me after like I was a weird, random beggar they met on the street.
Usually the reaction you'll get trying to convince someone to use an operating system when they don't know or care what an operating system is
"Do you mean the Internet? I use Bing."
"Install Linux", is usually a hurdle for most people. We should be willing to help with that part.
If you install something like Ubuntu for them, they won't bother switching back to windows.
