    Terminal is easier than Windows, if you don’t want to use it, fine, but saying it’s harder is a lie.

      If you hand someone a computer and powered up terminal and ask them to install an app like Tailscale. Watch them struggle without searching a forum on how to do it.

      A normie will have zero clue what is a app get. A normie won’t know you have to use a dash for app-get on some operating systems vs another one.

        Wow, you mean someone wont know how to do something if they’ve never done it before and are forbidden from looking for help? Astounding, get a research team on this.

        A normie won’t know you have to use a dash for app-get on some operating systems vs another one.

        But a single search will return dozens of results of the correct answer and then they’ll know, because it isn’t actually difficult and your argument is based in “I don’t want to learn” dressed up as “it’s too hard”
