There is a reason PDFs exist.

That’s true, and that’s what I am now doing. But if we want to collaborate on a document, you might run into the same issue. I’m not saying you have to use it, just that when I hit a snag, OnlyOffice was the thing that worked for me. 
I save it as PDF with embedded .odt so it breaks less. The file is bigger though. It is in the same export as pdf Window. I also do enable some of the ISO things except the one that complains a lot.
I’ve pretty much went Linux full time in August of 2022. Both Linux Mint and Debian (unstable). I even got my mom to switch over to Linux full time as well as her daily driver.

In my experience, mothers tend to be quite easy to transition to Linux and seem to find it very satisfying. (By the way, love you, Mum! 
) She’s been using it for seven years now – she’s still going strong and even handles updates herself, so no need for unattended ones.

Same here! My mum has been daily driving Linux for longer than I have 
She doesn’t use her laptop much, so both her old and current one ran Linux to get it to run longer (with less resource use). Was easier to get her to switch, because she only use it for mail and the occasional text document.
While I stuck around with Windows for longer because of gaming.
just do it. find your alternatives, and just do it!

Has to learn some basic linux staff when managing my vps from cloud. This could be tough for non tech savvy. Anyway, you can find answers from Google and forums if you had problem with linux.
