There are always stories of people installing Linux on their parents computer to provide them a more secure and stable operating system, seems interesting to share experiences.

Edit: I’m assuming that parents are okay with the changes, or do not care. Obviously do not force anyone to switch OS if they don’t want to.

    You know there are firefox profiles right?

    • cp /usr/share/applications/whatever.firefox.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/
    • replace firefox with firefox -p in the app launcher
    • if you want it, use a master password in every user account

      Yes I know, I have played with the options. I just wanted to set something up and get two different icons for them with nothing shared and installing two browsers seemed like the easiest way at the time.

        I dont know how to have 2 icons.

        I mean you are forcing one to use Chromium XD which is a pain and pretty creepy (contacts Google all the time).
