I have been running various linux distros on laptop/desktop/servers since I was in diapers and can say they are very stable and ready for the masses ... Ubuntu 20.04 is a solid choice ... whenever a neighbor moans about their slow PC I convince them to allow me to cut over to a fully Ubuntu box to free them from the malaise of those two legacy OS choices ( MS and osx ) ... all it takes is courage to take the leap ... long live linux
