Fedora here and same. It’s just a few commands to get started and everything else works fine

Most are lame. I saw nvid ai one and it didn’t feel surprising and after I found out it was fake, I did not feel fooled. Kinda like someone saying “here have a cup of JAFFA! Jokes on you, it’s orange juice!” Meanwhile some like suzuki slimny is cute and whimsical.

Notepad++ is good but a bit bloated. Would not call it rubbish. Node is solid.

Got it not even you can think of anything to defend clis inferiority.

Why would i install random software some rando on some random site tells me to to do a function my preinstalled gui(and terminal) can out of the box?

Sure terminal can be better in a few cases but the fact you are typing this from a guy browser on a gui os speaks for itself.

Your guide did literally nothing other than return errors. Seems like even you don’t know how to do this. I like the terminal but you need to touch grass at least once a year my friend.

Okay then how do I mount my drive through terminal and set it to automount every time and change it’s name to appear as “disk 3” everywhere?

Realizing how often I need to unfuck windows bullshit with regedit, commandline, installing more programs like putty for more command lines and 20 poorly made control panels drove me to linux finally cause I thought I might as well do everything consistently from one place: terminal.

Now I realize I haven’t had to use terminal for anything except tunneling to schools remote server to run a webpage as part of my studies, run npm or to start a local database, things no normal user would ever do. Things I will never do again once I finish my school.

thing with gui is you don’t need to memorize button locations and menus. If you do it’s poor layout. Good gui lets you find things you didn’t know you were looking for intuitively, without external resources or manual. CLI requires you to know what exactly you are doing and is impossible to use without external resources. Nothing against terminal but unless you know what you are doing and every command required to complete that action, it’s ass. If gui was so bad and cli was so good, guis would not be used by anyone.

Same with being stupid. You are not aware of it but its everyones elses problem.

Yes it is bad ux/ui but its better than windows regedit or its 20 control panels that don’t do the thing you want, or windows terminal that you use constantly and don’t notice.

T. I did not understand how anyone would like terminal for software and now i swear by my drop down console. But i agree, the few areas of terminal people mostly use should be covered by a gui, eg gnome having “open terminal in folder location” and gnome having ability to add repos to software center like kde.

I mean sure, do not use the two eyes you have and take a look at lemmy ux vs reddit and vs a forum. lemmy is literally the reddit we have at home. The fact its tons of different reddits we have at home connected is the only difference. Not even bait, this is what everyone normal sees.

Reddit with different management.

Ita lot of reddit under different management. It looks and feels like reddit not like a forum.

Lemmy is just reddit under different management.

More users = more support for programs and hardware on linux, more open source and freedom policies rather than maximising shareholder value. Less and less troubleshooting and figuring out why your shit you really need to work doesn’t work.

It benefits everyone, even the people who are in denial about good ux.

I mean id you think navigating through folders in terminal and using other shitty tools to create a template file is mentally stimulating or difficult task and teaches anything about linux other than that linux is unfinished and has massive oversights, you are not as clever as you think you are.

In case you don’t understand why your post needs to stand on it’s own, vectors in bitmap program are vectors until exported as bitmaps. They are very useful.

Same energy as “so tired of idiots who want right click>new file on gnome, are you too stupid to open the terminal, cd 20 times and use the shittiest text editor ever to create a new file and save it and then open nautilus and navigate to the same directory, or something?”

Comparable to driving from washington to argentina instead of taking a plane (for those who don’t know, there are no roads connecting north to south america). This is literally the attitude why there will never be year of the linux.

Photoshop and gimp are both bad painting software since they are not meant for that. They just do it in a pinch. Used to main ps until I bought clip studio and discovered how damn good it is. Then I went to linux and discovered how damn good krita is.
