My experience is with a RPi4 running raspbian/PiOS. You want to run most instances of software that doesn't have fully fleshed out port, whether it be a disk imaging software, running a Doom port and queuing up mods, or running a VPN, you gotta do it through terminal. I don't want to live in the pod, and don't want to eat the worms, but that's just how it is. Anything that doesn't have a pre-existing fully developed software relies on workarounds or partial builds which run exclusively through terminal
Using a desktop is a very different experience really, running a VPN doesn't require using the terminal. Why don't you try something like Kubuntu out in a virtual machine?
What do you use your device for? Most use cases don't require a terminal whatsoever
