Yea and I bet you installed it for them. If you provide IT support for people than yea totally doable. I switched to android and people call my phone a cheap phone or laugh at it granted the people I hang out with me included are middle class at best and I have a flagship phone and they are rocking iPhone 11s and stuff. Point being marketing is key and open source doesn’t have a Nike like following
Sounds like you need to hang out with better people. I doubt my friends could even tell you what phone I use, and Androids can easily cost more than an iPhone. People who call it cheap are uneducated on the subject and leaning toward shallow at best.
I installed Mint for my grandmother. I only visit twice a year and I’ve never had to help her fix it. On the other hand, I have have had to recover family Windows computers that had a bad update.

I did, because when you buy a PC, Linux is not installed by default. If it was, I wouldn’t have had to install it for them.
Ever since moving everyone to Linux, I haven’t had to do any IT support. Honestly.
My Linux installs break all the time because I can’t leave well enough alone. It’s always been my own fault.
