    I’m not going to dive into explaining Wine the first time someone’s ever heard of Linux. I start with the elevator pitch where everything’s great: It’s better because anyone can contribute code, so it’s been improved by all the smartest nerds on the internet. Making your code a trade secret is an inefficient system, Linux is smarter. Simple arguments anyone can understand.

    When the person thinks their own way into the problem: What do I do with all my windows apps? I give the answer: There’s an app called Proton that can run any Windows software. It’s better at running old windows software than Windows is. I’ll help you install it.
