A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

This was back in 1765. The world has changed since then. I hardly ever touch the terminal. That's another bullshit story some people tell you.
You're lying.
Lol. I am not. Try it out for yourself. If you run a "works out of the box" distro, you'll not need to touch the terminal, unless you choose to. Try Linux mint, fedora, zorin OS, elementary OS, Ubuntu, pop os.. Etc. On those, you literally won't need to touch the terminal for your day to day work. Everything works.
I've been "trying it myself" for over a year. It's a giant pain in the ass. And that's for someone who is tech-literate.
Sounds like a you issue. I promise, I'm not lying, I don't ever need to use the terminal, unless I choose to, or in some rare instances. Pick a simple works out of the box distro
