    apt install software

    Vs

    Search " software "click download, accept security warning, navigate to wherever your default download location is, double click installer, click your way through the installer (make sure do deselect whatever crapware it tries to package along with).

    Yup, the Windows way is totally so much easier.

            It doesn’t and you know that.

            From there you click Firefox, then you click the download link it gives you on the next page, that downloads a file (still not installed) or takes you to an app store if you’re on a phone, you run that file or click install on the app store to actually install the application.

                Great, you’re halfway there with that sarcasm. Now apply that to the comment chain you posted in and… hell why you’re here the post itself and you’ll get it now.

                People still try to claim Linux is complicated and has a lot of unnecessary steps to install stuff and it just isn’t true for vast majority of people installing the vast majority of stuff.

                  Uh, maybe you’re not picking up the context clues here. I’m actively making fun of windows users. Blatantly even. The sarcasm is pretty one-sided toward the windows community. But thank you for trying to convert me to Linux. It’s been a fun 20 years and hopefully 20 more.
