What do you suggest? >=20 > [Dankon. / Thank you.] > Quiliro >=20 For my grandmother I set up =E2=80=9CWeb Apps=E2=80=9D with Epiphany (a.k= .a. GNOME Web) for Wikipedia, News, Weather, etc. Then I copied the .desktop files for these Web Apps from ~/.local/share/applications to the Desktop folder for desktop icons (launchable with a single click via an extension for GNOME Shell, alternatively with a different shell). There also is a symlink to the Pictures and Videos directories on the desktop. She still barely uses her computer though. A touchscreen would have made it easier to use the desktop interface compared to a scary touchpad with left and right button. Regards, Florian
