    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.

      Why do people need to learn CLI to watch youtube and write emails? That’s all the average computer user does.

        obviously you don’t have to, i just recommend, aggressively perhaps, that anybody using linux, should learn the CLI, because it’s highly advantageous.

          Nope, it’s gatekeeping. I installed Ubuntu on my partner’s machine instead of paying for windows, because he only uses webapps. Learning CLI isn’t required for browsing the web, and trying to force it only makes people think it’s useless for basic shit.

        im correct though.

        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.
