minus-squarelaughterlaughter@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·edit-25 months agoOh man. In one comment I’m defending how easy it is to use Linux. And here I am, still surprised that, in 2024, there are techies saying stuff like “oh that’s easy. Just open the terminal and…” …and you’ve lost a potential convert.

minus-squareTurdMongler@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0arrow-down1·5 months agoIt’s less steps than an exe and automated. Opening the terminal is one click. It’s not like you need to know how to do anything else in there. It is extremely easy. Open terminal, one command. Done. Your quote ended with “and…” As if there was a lot to type. “Oh that’s easy. Just open the terminal and type pacman -S firefox” sounds better.
