Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility.

Valve is proving that LOTS of people would use Linux if it came in convenient preinstalled packaging.
Indeed. I'd say majority of people nowadays need just one thing from their computer - working web browser. Mail, office suite, audio and video consumption, even graphic suite (e.g. photopea) is available, and widely adopted, in browser. And browsers behavesbvirtually the same whether on Windows or Linux, so yeah, put person in front of nicely packed Linux PC and chances are there won't be many issues.
That would be a Chromebook.
