I want to get my sister off her Macdows onto
Linux. Any suggestions how
to deal with her long commitment to Quickbooks? Web searching for migrate
from Quickbooks to FOSS or Linux is not going well.
Hi Felix,
If she's going to use Quickbooks then she'll need some version of Win.
Quickbooks since 2002(ish) does not play well on Linux. See this answer:

Even if she's willing to give up QB for some other program (GnuCash, ??),
it's generally considered easy enough to setup a Win 10 Virtual Machine so
that a person should just stick with QB (especially if they need to
send/share any financial data to someone else).
Best,
Michael
