Yep. Atomic doesn’t suit my needs outside of a dedicated gaming machine, but if I help my mom with a new computer, it’s going to have an atomic desktop with KDE. Close enough to windows that she won’t need to learn something new, secure where I won’t have to clean it out every 6 months, and reliable to where she can handle OS updates herself. I just need to be able to run an old version of WordPerfect for her in Wine and she has everything she needs.
