      oh uhh I used the sprout emoji from FlorisBoard to symbolize growth.

      Are FOSS apps inherently for newbs?

      not really sure how to answer this as Free Open Source Software (FOSS) apps are just more trustworthy than proprietary apps.

      It mostly depends on the development age of the project.

      Being brutally honest FOSS apps that are:

      • Newer tend to be more clunky and are harder to trust because the dev might be inexperienced and might not continue development.
      • Older might have some crust but are more trustworthy as the dev is likely to polish and iron out any cruft.

      So “Are FOSS apps inherently for newbs?” is kinda hard to answer.

      If instead I was asked: “Is x FOSS app easier to use than y proprietary app?” this I could probably give you a more definitive satisfactory answer.
