No, some Laptops exclusively don’t have Ethernet, but come with pre-installed wifi drivers.
Worst case scenario you get a USB to ethernet adapter. Again, ethernet drivers are pre-installed.
This entire point is just you making the problems and crying about them, even though solutions are easier to apply then it is to create this problem.
Also regarding your mother and your argument for me.
You said you moved her over, my entire argument is regular people have no idea how to do stuff like that alone.
Your mother did not install or maintain the distro. It seems you do. So that entire argument doesn’t really have a leg to stand on, as it about non tech people working with tech without help.
Also what is your comment about me and Windows?
Windows isn’t hard to break, but you need to know how to do it. To the regular people who don’t even what the control panel is will have an extremely hard time breaking Windows. I know how to break it, so I avoid breaking it. I don’t mess with Windows much anymore, I mess with Linux and I’m unintentionally breaking stuff kinda often, while just trying to make my Linux distros function in a way simular to what I’m used to on Windows.
The point is, if you buy a pre set up laptop with Linux the drivers are pre installed too. You cannot take a clean Linux install and not compare to a clean Windows install.
As to my Mom, she didn’t set up Windows either. In either case you’re paying someone to set it up if you’re like her. Just because you already learned Windows doesn’t make Linux harder, just different. Do you think an enterprise is not going to have IT in both cases? It’s not like the users are setting anything.

Your arguments are grasping at straws at best.
