They still exist because Google isn’t really a technology company anymore. It’s an advertising company masquerading as a technology company. Their success depends on selling more ads which is why all the failed projects don’t seem to make a difference.

Well no shit, that’s pretty much every ruler/ruling class in history.

I looked into ready made NAS machines but wasn’t sold on the software that came with them. Ended up building a small PC and installing OpenMediaVault on it which I have been super happy with.

Aye, Cinnamon i’d say is pretty Windows like now (taskbar, start menu and tray) but definitely not as good as KDE. The average user would be happy with either I think.

Mint has the Cinnamon desktop environment which isn’t that different from Windows/KDE. You’re probably thinking of Gnome?
