Then perhaps you’re overthinking it. that is not uncommon for tech types BTW. I’ve seen more inefficient program code from so called ‘geniuses’ than anything and I just can’t help put my head in my hands whenever they go off like you are rn.
Kuz a child or boomer grandparent could easily run ubuntu and probably never ever have to call IT unless something actually physically busted on their puter. Linux is smart enough to tell them what is wrong.
The fact it told me clear errors such as a drive has days before it’s toast was an amazing experience after working blind in windows.
Someone computer illiterate could just haul their box and throw it at the geek squad and just tell them to hook up a new drive.
Because it’s still a mess. Only technical users are going to stick with it.
just when was the last time you even saw a linux distro? Ubuntu runs like a smart phone now within the last year of updates.
srsly its just icon buttons now. the need for terminal is all but a distant memory now for the average user.
Daily steamdeck and bazzite user. Devops + SE 40 hours a week 🤷♂️. I’m regularly in the terminal fixing stuff.

Unlike windows: ‘it broke. Go fish.’.
