You see, hexbear has been moving towards :tux: for quite a while now and it's scaring the :LIB:s and the :fedposting:s so expect a lot of anti-Linux posting and just nod your head and don't engage :penguin-dance:

    for like 90% of people a command line interface is borderline unuseable. i'm sure there are specific tasks a TUI is more suited for. but' a list of all options' is much less navigable than a well designed GUI menu with visual cues imo. ive used pcs for over a decade and have literally never even opened up the CMD line. i know versions of linux have GUIs i'm being slightly facetious because internet reward hot take.

      why would i want a pc with almost no user interface lol, human like picture

      You asked why you would want a terminal and I told you. It also has a lot of features that make it far more user friendly than you might think.

      Much less navigable

      That's a matter of perspective. An airplane is hard to fly to you and me because there are thousands of buttons but a trained pilot would have difficulty trying to use an Xbox controller to fly a commercial airline. Having a learning curve is only one aspect of navigablity and in fact the most efficient interface is rarely the one that your grandma would be able to pick up and use with no effort.
