          I’ve heard this complaint since the '90s. Linux has continued to grow and thrive as a “real usable option” in that time.

          If you want stupid-user friendly Linux experience get a tablet with Android on it.

            You are stuck in the echo chamber of your own mind. This isn’t for me. Or for you. I want these changes for the idiots friend.

              I don’t want an OS designed for idiots - that’s what IOS is and it’s a shitty walled-garden because it has to be.

                Good, the cool thing is that distros for newbies or power users exist. They just want utilities making these actions more accessible. Being elitist serves no one in the long run.

                  Problem with all this is we get shit like flatpak which is unsuitable for use from the cli. GUI first bs for people who can’t be arsed to learn the very basics of the console.

                  Call me elitist is it makes you feel better, but not all Linux users are morons and can handle a little console use.

                    Lol, the cool thing is you don’t have to use flatpak. If there’s only a flatpak you could package it yourself. Flatpak has way more benefits than just being boiled down to GUI first…

                    I’m happy to call names if what I see literally falls under the definition of elitist.
