I’ll never understand why people use apt-get for anything other than scripting, or specialized commands when programmers have put in real effort to make apt easy.
The author could have saved 4 keystrokes! Saving keystrokes is the entire point of Linux! Just look at how abbreviated the root folder naming scheme is. It took years of effort to find the perfect abbreviations and directory structure to minimize keystroke. The loss of legibility and discoverability might suck, but it’s worth it. And this author is over here wasting keyboard fuel on “-get”. smh
