> first version of Linux - which I did not have the honor to use but I can imagine how user friendly it was

My first accounts were on Linux 1.x. It was glorious. Simple, sensible, and with manuals one command away. And it allowed you to just get things done. And there were tools. So many tools. 80's home computers and DOS crap and Macs that couldn't even open a file if it hadn't been tagged as the property of some application... Hells I would never have to be a part of any more. Except for work and school. But for personal computing, a brighter future was coming. In 30+ years since I've never had to step away.
