Those who expect paid service quality are probably better off paying for it. On the other hand, Windows 10 is so malicious they will need to pay for 3ed party tech support to stop the spying.
Maybe direct them to a known good Ubuntu or Mint LTS, then to paid apps that run on it and have paid tech support? When you use free software you are not paying people to staff call centers and provide 24-7 support. You need to bring your own browser, fire up Startpage or DuckDuckgo, and look for the solution yourself. When I got dissatisfied with every desktop in existance, instead of complaining I started hacking, now some of my work on MATE might be going to GIT master. A free community is based on mutual exchange. With things that have a zero reproduction cost a lot of free riders is fine, but you get out of free software what you put into it.
