You mean Vista. Windows 7 was perfect. Till it was ruined by what shall not be named.

My parents run a Windows PC as, from what I can tell, a home for stray botnets. The main uses are checking email and working on Word documents. (They have a laptop and iPad, respectively, which does most of their work, so it's an infrequently consulted machine.)

What Linux build would you recommend that I can fire and forget, that would be compatible with the Windows 10 machine they have running and will likely never replace.

It's like those cars where you pay a subscription to use the heated seats.

Are you doing software for money? Because not having Kubernetes in the project will stop you from receiving money. Someone please create with one of these smart AI tools the ultimate killer app: Kubernetes+crypto+AI+blockchain+Angular+Redux+Azure (Working only in Chrome browser).

EDIT: apologies I misunderstood that this is limiting third-party distribution. I am of course, in favour of this.

Original comment:

I don't want this. The App Store on iOS has its flaws, but it's a curated system that has a lot of checks in place to prevent malware. I have never felt unsafe on iOS and it's the primary reason I've not joined Android and the Play Store's wild west.
