i like novel implementations of these things, it’s the reason why linux as it is today is so good, people were willing to try novel methods of package management, and the repo worked great.
that’s crazy bro, are you going to say anything else are you going to keep downvoting my comments because you have a collective 2 iq inside of your head, capable of only regurgitating the most basic of broken AI LLM behavior.
Anyway, curious that you’re still talking about fucking children.
You should just learn CLI, if you’re already using linux, clearly you desire more than the “it works” approach of windows or macos. Why not improve your life by learning how to better utilize it?
This is like arguing that you shouldnt have to learn self finance because it’s a choice. Sure, but it’s an objectively stupid choice.
A good modern gui also presents itself in front of you. It directs your attention to important buttons/options. You don’t need any prior knowledge to know that a cog shaped button labeled settings will take you to settings. Good UIs are self explanatory. CLI are not.
it also suffers from exponential growth complexity. CLI only has linear growth complexity. Every button and element you add to a gui makes refactoring the entire GUI layout exponentially harder.
They want everything to be accessible and to be easy.
CLI is both accessible and easy, intuitive even. The only problem is that it requires a fundamental knowledge basis, and some syntactic context. But that’s all pretty minimal.
I would argue a GUI is more confusing if it has any nested elements in it (like photoshop for example)
if you’re using systemd, 90% of your system maintenance and boot handling is going to be running through systemd, so it’s likely to be pretty syntactically similar.
other than that they’re utterly lost on Linux without the help of others. This will definitely make people use Linux instead of going back to the exploitative OS they know where they at least feel comfortable enough to know it won’t fail on them.
yknow, unless they do actual debug. Everytime i’ve seen someone go over an issue they have with linux, via someone else, it follow the process of debug, troubleshoot, solve. Where you must necessarily learn something. Maybe not as much as when you figure it out yourself, but group troubleshooting is often more efficient.
Not to mention all of the resources and information out there to actually figure out what’s happening is so much more accessible.
I think the CLI criticisms are way overblown, and non-programmers can use CLIs perfectly well if they want to.
it’s not even criticism, it’s just people being lazy and not wanting to learn things, which is fine, be lazy all you want. But at least be honest with yourself about it.
literally just learn CLI, you’re actively wasting time by not learning it. It’s so hard to describe how utterly beneficial the CLI is to someone who hasn’t used it.
listen man, if you’re going to hire me for an IT position, you better assume i will do nothing other than linux, unless you want to pay me a lot more fucking money, or want me to be very mad, all of the time.
god, haha, no, you’re embarrassing, but that’s down to your behavior, pedo.
ah, you’re funny, you remind me a dog, capable of only expressing the most fundamental of emotion and connection. Due to millennia of evolutionary selection.
You admitted to abusing children, it doesn’t matter what you’d like at this point.
i don’t recall doing that, weirdly enough, seems like you’re just taking what i say, and then inverting it, to cope and make yourself feel better, rather than actually provide any witty comeback, or better yet, just stop replying. Unfortunately for you i just look like a better person than you.
stroof.
you aussie or something? Would explain why cost of housing is so unbelievably fucked for you, unless you’re traveling. Unfortunately for the rest of the world our housing is affordable, in comparison to aussie realestate.
Eh, what do i know, maybe you’re from NZ or something funny.

meanwhile windows users complacent in learning complex muscle memory in order to navigate only the most autistic UI design ever created (it was windows)
