  • Sorry, I didn’t catch on to the embedded sarcasm part. Anyhow back to arguing.

    Linux user friendly enough for most people? The most trivial thing for you can be really complex for others without experience.

    I have seen windows users use macOS for the first time and vise versa. Neither windows or macOS are intuitive. What do you mean you have to open a browser and download an exe file and then open it (said some macOS user)? Why does your window snapping barely work? (said some windows user) I’d say a first time user would consider linux more intuitive than either macos or windows.

    There isn’t anything intuitive about opening terminal to install an app from the repository because the default app store version is broken.

    Yeah this is true, kinda funny when people use chatgpt for help and the first thing it always says is open terminal.

    And to be fare just last night I installed fedora on some laptop with an old fedora 42 iso and I tried to update it to fedora 44 using the gui software manager and it just didn’t work. I ended up updating in the terminal.





  • What the hell is this take. Firstly your cooling the average user dumb which is just kinda rude and untrue, Also developers are working really hard to build the best possible Linux experience for everyone. how about you actually chip in before shaming them for not working hard enough. And Linux is already user friendly enough for most people, arguably more user friendly than windows. People just want to stick to what they know, also vendor lock in, and most people don’t know how to install Linux and will just use the default operating system. I don’t think Linux devs can do anything to fix any of those problems.
