Mint/elementary are good if on windows 10/Mac respectively

What I would say is what is your reason for converting people, because you're going to end up as permanent tech support this way when they'd have probably been fine with a Mac or something

Mint is one of the best bets for beginners, it's very similar to windows 10 UI wise by default and generally very user friendly

I was on 50 max for a while, it's perfectly fine for pretty much everything but big downloads will take longer

(I was gaming online on voice chat at the same time my family was streaming and there wasn't any issue)

I have just upgraded to 500mb for about £35 a month though your pricing is rough

I generally don't miss anything graphical, once I learn how to do something from the cli I rarely feel the need to do it graphically anymore as it's usually a lot slower

The obvious one would be Photoshop and paint.net of course but krita does the trick

That doesn't fit the definition of memory leak in my mind, had thought a memory leak was specifically when the program completely loses track of memory
