Are you sure he wants a rolling release?
If so, then Manjaro.
If not, I always say:
From Windows? > Mint.
From MacOS? > Ubuntu.
The answer is almost always one of those two for non-technical people.
- baobun 1y agoManjaro is a mess. EndeavourOS is similar (both are Arch derivatives) but less breaky and something I'd recommend more.
- stavros 1y agoBasically he doesn't bother updating his computer, so I want something that will auto-update to fairly modern versions, that's why I mentioned stability as a requirement. What's wrong with rolling release?
- jamesgill 1y agoI would say rather "are regular updates really necessary"? Personally, I'm not sure they are (for most users). To paraphrase Debian, there's a lot of value in stability.
