unrelated to snaps but i just helped a relative get back into dual booting. apparently i had told them about "kde neon" and they had used youtube to dual boot. ended up with a broken grub. "ow. why does it say grub rescue".
which immediately helped the kid reuse his pc. the surprise on the phone was genuine. "it worked".
and i kinda wished it should have because the "baby duck syndrome", this would've been the linus popos event for this person.
i really think we need to improve some sort of "youtube basic linux tutorials", because apparently text is old school now (thats what i've been told)
are there youtubers who i can recommend to new users who can help people to ease into the linux community until they can learn their way across even basic troubleshooting their systems?
Well i don't help with that, it's too slow and not searchable, the linux terminal is text and so are manpages...on the other-hand i also don't care if someone wants to use a *nix.
i made them get a live usb, install anydesk and then found out https://askubuntu.com/a/531448
