My approach with introducing friends to Linux on their laptops is to tell them to buy a new SSD double the size of the current one. Then i mirror their windows install and recovery and EFI to the beginning of the new SSD and then install Linux to the second half making sure that Linux get its own EFI partition and does not use Windows so that the TPM setups does not interfere with each other. Then they dont need to change anything on their Windows install, and they can also teporarily bail to Windows when something breaks/doesnt work and ask me later how to fix it.

exasperated “Does anyone want to say a word about the recently deceased?”
“It’s a shame he didn’t get to try Linux”
exhausted sigh “does anyone have anything to say that isn’t about Linux?”
“Microslop windows is trash, a waste of resources, poorly optimized, and spies on you.”
“I use Arch, btw”, you mean.
I just realized I’ve become that guy six months into switching from Windows. I want to save even one person, but I’m probably just annoying people atm.
It’s arch, btw.
As a 30+ year Slackware user, I’m unimpressed.

“Im sorry for your loss. Move on.”
