A whole lot of people who just do web or email or whatever could live with a Chromebook actually. They don't really need the latest CPU/GPU and gobs of ram and disk space for simple stuff

Sorry, was expecting a flood that didn't happen I guess. Why a separate partition for home (or var, or whatever you want to split off)? See

Can you use a hardware key like a Yubikey instead?

I learned by a lot of distro hopping, tweaking and tuning and compiling kernels (way back when tho), to not being afraid of "breaking things." Since Nov. 1992. It helps when you use a spare PC or laptop though, no panic about loss
