I learned the most about linux back when stuff didn’t work right out of the box
This is the equivalent of pushing your kid to the pool so it learns to swim.
You know, I think it’s kinda weird. Chatbots are all the hype and yet people hate terminals. Maybe we just need a very over-engineered terminal that insults your pitiful attempts at bash before they are cool again.
I’m convinced the reason people hate terminals is because there must have been a disinformation campaign against them by the Microsoft sales department in the 90s.
After that, even people who were comfortable with using BASIC on their 8-bit home micro-computers somehow became convinced they were too stupid to do anything without a mouse. Its Orwellian, honestly.

But I already use Warp terminal?
But will it praise my pitifull attempts at fish?
I hope so, using fish automatically makes you a better person in my humble and completely unbiased opinion
PShaw, that’s how I had to do it. Slackware on floppy. Pre-internet search engine, one computer per household. No cellular data.
windows -> Dial up -> look at some docs, take nodes -> reboot into Slackware -> mess with the console -> get stuck -> reboot into windows -> repeat
That’s why I went with Red hat back then. They were sort of the gold standard and everything kinda just worked. Not as well as “it just works” Linux nowadays, but it used to be pretty good and easier to use, relatively speaking, compared to the other distros of the time.
Dependency hell still sucked.
You use a console? Noob… Magnetised needle is where the real productivity is at.
Back in my day we knit those bits into place. That’s where the really cool projects are.
I always use butterflies
For a second I thought it was the Linux comunity
