    Not necessarily. Linux can have files that are r---r---r--- too

    Now I've learned enough to know that I can easily learn what all that apparent gibberish does with the "man" command, but you have no idea how unbelievably unapproachable this makes Linux look to the uninitiated.

    Create one command "iownyou" that does tbe following: Change the owner of every file on the computer to the default user and make every file readable, writeable, an executable by anyone or anything on the computer. It may not be secure, but on the bright side, you'll never have permission issues again!

    Then you sudo chmod. Windows I have to do weird shit with the properties context menu. And even that sometimes doesn't work. I run commands in powershell as Administrator. Still doesn't work.

    Fuck Windows.

    That’s just because Linux is designed for end users so everything is intuitive and easy. Windows is designed for tech nerds that like digging through pages to make anything work
