In no way am I trying to defend the GOP, Musk, Trump, or dissuade voting for Harris, because Democrats are obviously the lesser of the 2 evils, and we are like days out from the election so nothing we can do about that now besides get energized for the next round of primaries.
BUT I’d say there are still plenty of valid arguments that the Democrats are a party of rich elites. It isn’t mutually exclusive, both the GOP and Democrats can be this at the same time, and I’m not saying “BoTh SiDeS aRe ThE sAmE” because literal fascists are worse than neoliberals or however you want to characterize Democrats.
Am I out of my mind?
I definitely understand where you’re coming from, but at this point I’ve had so many JustWorks™️ Linux systems, including set up on my parents’ PC for well over 5 years without one single problem or breaking update, and they certainly are never opening up the terminal.
My experience tells me that this is just objectively wrong, or I’d be getting calls from my parents, HOWEVER, I will concede that maybe this is only wrong if you just want a bulletproof system that works without messing around much.
If OP wants to mess around and get dirty in settings, then I’ll give it to you that they might need to be a bit more open minded about the terminal. I haven’t really tried much GUI configs or settings besides really common, typical stuff, like network config or power saving modes/settings, because I just go right to the terminal regardless.
But its just wrong to claim that someone who doesn’t want to use a terminal will have a problem on Linux, it just depends heavily on what you are trying to do. For the tasks that most people use a personal computer for, there won’t be anything holding you back.
