If the alternative is Windows which is increasingly filled with ads or Linux which shifts the burden of computer administration to a user who might not have a clue about what they're supposed to do if their WiFi doesn't "just work", paying for a managed walled garden that doesn't try to install candy crush without you asking for it isn't such a bad option.
