I work with manufacturing, and recently switched the entire company to Fedora Silverblue / Kinoite (Depending on the users preferences) (A few people such as myself are using Fedora Plasma Spin). We have been running Linux in the workforce for over 8 months at this point.
All of our workstation in our production line were also switched as well (To Raspberry Pi 5’s). Needless to say, we are pretty much Microsoft free.
We were able to breathe life back into perfectly fine computers that did not meet the Windows 11 requirement, and after doing research about our software, we were able to determine, we did not need Microsoft AT ALL. We just had to change our mindset.
The Fedora Team / Red Hat has done such an amazing job creating such an easy and comfortable system to use that adoption of my users was almost too perfect. My heart goes out to you for helping make this a reality.
(Note: I work with people who barely know how to turn a computer on and it was easy for them to understand)
I have often been requested to Upgrade their personal laptops from Windows 10 to Fedora. With company approval, I started a class for our users and was authorized within reason to put Linux on their laptops. Obviously, legal took care of making sure everything was fine and users had to do some agreement, but that’s companies for you.
