I guess some of us are more astute when it comes to the difference between clicking something and needing to open a terminal and remember strings of commands before. Oh, and being intrinsically familiar with a forum.
For a lot of distro's you don't need to use a terminal to install things if you aren't comfortable with that. While I believe learning to use a commandline a little bit will always be beneficial, you really don't havo to. Take a look at linux mint for example, which has a "store" for packages.
When I used Mint, I found I'd typically get outdated versions when downloading software from the "store", sometimes to the extent that it outright wouldn't work. It was because of that I found myself needing to learn to use Terminal.
Install windows software: download the exe or msi and click OK 2 or 3 times
Install Linux software: you got at least 40hrs to learn terminal commands to install dependencies n shit? I fucking don't, that's not what user-friendly looks like to 90% of the planet
Windows: open edge, go to google, type the package you want, scroll past ads, download random executable from internet, execute, click through wizard, open program.
Linux: open package manager, search package you want, click install, open program.
And once you've done it once, you can install it again on another machine by just using
Linux: $PACKAGE_MANAGER install $PACKAGE, open program.
Windows: open edge, go to google, type the package you want, scroll past ads, download random executable from internet, execute, click through wizard, open program.
That only happens if you are fixated on installing the software without connecting to the internet.
Otherwise, the package manager does it for you (that's what its job is)
Nah. An Apple exec would outright tell you you're using it wrong despite knowing of an inherent flaw in the design and offer to sell you a new one for even more money.
